TAX Hybrid Car Owners?
C'mon Hybrid drivers, you want to pay your fair share, don't you? Of course you do. And the extra taxes you pay will help the environment and the ozone, so we can certainly count on you for that, Right?
Taxing hybrids and other fuel-efficient cars and billing drivers for miles driven are among the approaches being suggested to avert a shortfall in money to maintain the nation's highways.
Proposals for the longer term could be more controversial. One is that owners of hybrids and other alternative fuel vehicles pay a vehicle fee, the argument being that drivers should bear their fair share to fill potholes and fix bridges, regardless of how much or what kind of fuel they use.
