Remember when they had to raise taxes on gas to pay for roads?

From State Rep Tim Wadsworth on FB: HB15 Bill to transfer $1,200,000 from Road and Bridge Fund to ALEA- PASSED

So taking money from roads to pay for ALEA is good. Does that mean we will be raising taxes even more to make up for the shortfall they will now say is there?

Good thing they got all the roads fixed.

I must just be imagining getting my truck bounced around on  the worn out, patched, and cratered roads that are probably carrying 5-10x the capacity they were originally designed for.

The junction going from I-459 North onto I-20 East is absolute shit.

Plus most of I-20.

They better be giving everyone free CC permits. Letting each county's SO determine the price is dumb. South Carolina permits are good for 5 years and cost $50. Five would cost me $100 in Morgan county.

For them to take money from the road fund and use it for who knows what is dumb. I wonder who blew who for that to happen.

Its just the start.  Sooner or later, they're going to raid the road fund for everything.

Then, they will complain there's not enough money to fix the roads.

This is exactly why I've always opposed a state education lottery.  I full expect the legislature would steal from the monies raised and education to have nothing!

I was out that way last Monday. First time in a long time. And you're not kidding.
