If this passes, I'm seriously thinking about moving out of this country. This has to be the last straw. If they were actually TAX THE UPPER CLASS LIKE THEY SHOULD BE, they could get the money that way, and have some left over! You've even got billionares saying they don't pay enough taxes, as it is. This is friggin ridiculous! The only people this would hurt are the ones that can't afford it in the first place, and drive this country into more of a recession than it already is in.
And if this does pass, IMO it'll just lead states to think "wow, the feds increased the gas tax to get more money for the highways, so why can't we do the same for our state roads?", and follow suit.
They haven't seen a "death spiral" until this passes. I couldn't even list all of the repercussions this tax would cause.

Saying the country is in transportation “death spiral,” a national commission today recommended as much as a 40-cent increase in the federal gas tax to unclog our highways.
