Reply #71: Obviously your masturbatory glee has affected your eyesight

[MajorChode]

Your own reference proves me exactly right and you exactly wrong.

Your claim was, and I quote, "automobile usage ends up being heavily subsidized by general revenue funds"

Your own reference shows general fund appropriation at 15%. I'm sure you've also tried to convince people that 4" is huge. And if you actually had bothered to go to the Brookings site and read the article, you would have found this...

The maintenance and operation of local streets is also supported with general funds of
local governments using revenue from real estate taxes on residential, commercial, and
industrial property. In recent years, many local governments have also used similar financial
support to provide local public transit services, which can be viewed as a source of
basic accessibility.

Which matches up almost precisely with what I had already told you, which was...

Local governments can and sometimes do finance road projects by other means, and usually this happens by property taxes, but it's assumed that local citizen property owners and businesses benefit directly or indirectly by having paved roads in their area.

Literacy is a great thing. You should try it sometime. I'll also note that you dismissed my progressive stance as a "rant" and ignored it completely. In your defense, I'm sure you were too busy masturbating.

Have a nice day.
