[QUOTE="rickyb, post: 1563888, member: 56035"] Tolls are an example of "pay by use" as opposed to "pay by ability" which would be based on how much income or wealth you have. We have a toll bridge, and they waste all this money on building camera technology, and I cant imagine how many people they have to hire to collect tolls. I even heard they were going to create this other kind of toll where they take your money based on when and where u travel and have technology all over the place. its a total waste. the simple thing would be to raise taxes, becuase then you save on bureacracy and on the cost of implementing this technology. the just thing would be to only raise taxes on the super rich. parking meters are another example of "pay by use". you have to hire parking enforcement and people to clean out the meters, and you have to pay to set up the meter themselves. its a total waste.
