        Unless you totally reconfigure housing availability, this turns into a disproportionate tax on middle and lower middle class who have to drive to jobs.

        Note his plan is to "raise a lot more tax dollars' -- HOW he does it seems less important than the idea that we voted a 30% increase in taxes to build more roads, which I'm pretty sure did not come up at all in the campaign last year.

        I mean, doesn't the current federal excise tax on fuel (18.3 cents per gal gasoline/24.3 on diesel) effectively do the same thing (at least on vehicles that use combustible fuel)?

        It’s good that the GOP put out so many infrastructure plans during Trump’s infrastructure weeks that you can call upon to counter Pete’s GOP is really the party of ideas...

        To oppose new taxes we are obligated to propose our own trains, etc, to spend money on? I don't think so.

        It's gonna be great when the market for old cars with broken odometers takes off. Buttigieg's blue-smoke highways.

        So much for only raising taxes on those that earn over $400k/yr.

        Building the infrastructure and bureaucracy to monitor the mileage of millions of vehicles in perpetuity would be an overhaul in itself.
