Or at least it used to be. We're not getting it anymore. Would've been a good idea though.SRTC Staffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07712647581551158820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6631817465149954711.post-22169222503012112332011-05-12T09:21:56.614-07:002011-05-12T09:21:56.614-07:00They should have added a COLA to that so it could ...They should have added a COLA to that so it could at least keep pace with inflation.vanillajanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04900731824539473698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6631817465149954711.post-14725368254510938442011-05-12T08:05:20.124-07:002011-05-12T08:05:20.124-07:00Yep, my favorite Eyman initiative was 695, aka the...Yep, my favorite Eyman initiative was 695, aka the $30 license tab initiative. Great, now everyone only pays a base fee of $30 for their vehicle license tabs, but our roads are falling apart. And I pay $45 to license my tiny 12' fishing boat trailer that used to cost about $15 before the initiative.SRTC Staffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07712647581551158820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6631817465149954711.post-28440512510689620332011-05-11T23:50:42.898-07:002011-05-11T23:50:42.898-07:00I agree every initiative Tim Eyman has proposed ha...I agree every initiative Tim Eyman has proposed has been a disaster, so I do not see where this one will be different. I do not see why those of us that never drive on the toll bridges should decide which bridge has a toll. The state may have had the money without a toll if some of the initiatives Mr. Eyman has got passed had not passed.Charleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15311523372083088677noreply@blogger.com
