No one likes paying taxes, but we live in a society. A VMT almost feels un-American, doesn’t it? It exposes use fees in general for what they really are: a crock of shit. If we subsidize roads, we should subsidize railroads too.

I hear the taxes are non-existent in Somalia if you ever decide you don’t like the benefits of society.

Because a large portion of our state currently drives into Mass and utilizes their commuter rail system already, or commutes all the way to Boston. Not to mention everyone else who is commuting to Boston for anything from sporting events to shopping to flying out.

Manch airport isn’t a substitute for Logan. Flight options are terrible and limited.

This would help a large chunk of the state on a number of things and just makes entirely more sense than busses.. which defeats the point of reducing traffic and not having to sit in it all day.
