Green Taxes

Sorry your numbers are not supported by the facts. It is estimated that a states road income comes from 55% HTF and Gas tax. The gas tax includes that which is administered by states.

The 55% of HTF pays for the 4% (approx) of the roads (NHS, including the Interstate)...and the state gas tax pays for the other 96 percent of state roads.

It is those 4% of the roads/highways in the NHS that are most critical to the economy and thus are included in the HTF.

When the HTF is depleted those state-administered roads in the NHS suffer the consequences.

That is what I said. The majority of state roads and bridges are paid for by the state.
