. "After all, do long-haul commuters
really pay their fair share of the road costs? (To tell you the
truth, I don't know the answer, but I suspect that the federal and
state governments end up subsidizing driving, at least for certain
drivers."

I dunno about "long-haul commuters".....(interesting term)...but long-haul
truckers pay....(and pay and pay and pay)....it's called taxes.....fuel
taxes...road taxes....excise taxes....special "use"
taxes....fee's....permits.....ad nasuem....

The Federal and state governments only have such money that they extort from
someone else. ...me for one...
