Vox Pop
The House Transportation committee has heard a proposal for a one-cent sales tax to fund statewide traffic priorities. Would you favor such a tax for that purpose? What else do you think should be done to ease the DOT's funding problems?
"Yes, I would agree with the one-cent sales tax, but what they need to do is make their employees more efficient. Instead of having four or fiveat one spot, they should have only one." JANE CLARK Homemaker
"I would favor a one-cent sales tax because the roads in Georgia are in pretty bad shape and need some work. What else can be done? Maybe a special tax on luxury vehicles that are tearing the roads up. That might be a good idea." BILLY SMITH Industrial Maintenance Technician
"I do approve the one-cent tax and I also think toll bridges would be satisfactory." NATASHIA BACINO Stay-at-home-mom
"I would favor that over anything else. Other than the funding problem, they just need to be more careful how they spend their money." JOHN HARRIS Technical Training Instructor
