> Stop the insane energy policies that raise gas prices by 45 cents per gallon (in CA for example) for 0.0001% change in climate
You mean the gas taxes that fund road maintenance? That tax is a tyranny imposed by how much we rely on cars, not by climate change.
It's funny how other states must use magic wands to fix their roads, obviously since the gas prices are not jacked up as high elsewhere.
I don’t understand the sarcasm. Comparable states like Texas and New York charge far more in tolls than California. Many states have far fewer roads (with less usage), or they underfund their road maintenance, don’t repair them, and then rely on federal funds to make emergency repairs after something critical breaks.
The tolls are
1. Used to fix toll lanes, much more prevalent now than in the past
2. Payments to private companies who siphon the proceeds out of the area they services
Gas tax is much better in this regard, but all of these are pretty extortionary.

Underlying the sarcasm is the assertion that California is not fiscally responsible with its budget. Understand now?
California has the worst roads of any state I've driven in. San Fran and San Jose, rank among the top 10 in the country of the worst roads. Whatever they are using it for, isn't for road maintenance.
