Road Pricing Is A Stupid IdeaIt's incredible... Yeah, ok, I've had a few tonight, and I signed the petition. I'm well steamed about this whole debacle... I watched a TV debate about Road Pricing (RP) tonight. I'd bet a grand of my kids college fund that none of them had an IQ over 130... Road Pricing Will Not Cut Congestion SignificantlyYou can quote me on this. Significantly means - 'it makes a damn of difference'. It won't. Not in the long run... Just like in London - the 'Congestion Charge' will make the roads clearer for a few months, until people get used to the new tax... Then they'll just pay it and things will be back to normal - except the Treasury will be that much flusher... The Nanny State Becomes The Stalker State...Not only that, but to make the whole thing work - your Nanny, nay Stalker State will be tracking just exactly where you go, and when, and they will share that information with absolutely anyone who will give them a blowjob... Be under no illusions. They will use whatever info thay can gather to fuck you over - probably for more tax... It is true that a politician's imagination is one of the most wonderful things in Gods multiverse... Where the imagination of the musician or artist lifts us to love with inspiration, the imagination of the politician subjects us to a life of shit in glorification of their magnanimous mastery of bullshit... How could anyone propose such a stupid idea? It's at least as stupid as ID cards... Oh yeah... Tony 'Iraq is going just fine' BlairArsehole! I can give you three damn good reasons why road pricing is a terrible solution to congestion:
Ok, FOUR reasons. It wasn't difficult. ...You mark my words sonny. I haven't seen two world wars and lived without picking up a bit of wisdom here and there... Career politicians are bad through and through. They're like vermin. They should be stripped of their pensions and made to get a proper job - like you and I have to... GPS = Owned By The USA: 'No guarantee of accuracy or service...'How's that going to work then? Seeing as GPS is owned and operated by the US military, and they specifically warn that it offers no guarantee of service or accuracy... That's why europe was building it's own bunch of satellites - whatever it was called - 'euroscat' or whatever... They called it off - probably because they couldn't be bothered and thought the USA would just let us use GPS anyway... Here are some policies which will cut congestion!
Do ya see any exploiticians suggesting tax-breaks, hmmm? Do ya? No, cos they are addicted to your tax money. They are tax junkies - the biggest addicts of them all...
