They use the roads, he figures.

Get in the way of people driving cars too. Someone should suggest he also charge a pollution tax because exercise makes people like him fart. He could speak from experience on that, maybe?

Fuck this shit!

It's the automobile drives who should be paying MORE. Automobiles are free-loaders on society, sucking up subsidies from the taxpayers, sucking at the public tit while shitting poison and causing crap urban design.

And this bitch wants to tax the bicyclists?

We already pay taxes. If Wayne Kriger rode a bike, there would be less damage to the road to repair in the first place, and less damage to the air and climate. According to accident statistics, less loss of life. The funny thing is, even with a fee levied at me, I still come out WAY ahead in transportation expense savings and health benefits.

How very true!

And exercise, too!
