Funding roads (taxes, user fees etc)
#46
I didn't include hst on the gas. I included only the hst on the gas tax - which just seems completely obvious to me.

The report mentioned that they didn't include vehicle costs. It's a reasonable thing to mention since people bring it up (it was brought up even in this thread) and they then discredited why you would count it.

As for the rest of your post, you could be right. But you're making assumptions yourself and it doesn't seem like you have much to back them up. So I guess, feel free to post actual data and calculations about road cost recovery or I'll just let this thread die. Maybe to go find an anti-public transit thread where people bitch about people getting a free LRT because something something their taxes are paying for it but they'll never use it.
