Thread: Takman, cestarina: Zašto bi se mogli oduprijeti cestarine

Late last year there was a brief outbreak of Poll Tax on Wheels headlines as proposals were being floated around as part of an overhaul of the motorway network.
It tada nisam cause that much of a stink then what with Christmas and everything, but a slow burn on this story now seems to be filtriranje through to other papers and outlets. If it wasnt for the fact that our burgers now have added horse power, such a proposal should be nearer the top of the news agenda.
We really need to make a fuss about this: 150 is the figure that has been plucked out of the air, probably on the basis that drivers navika notice it that much. After all, it is not much more than a fill up and a half at the pumps, and not far off the 145 I have to pay to the BBC each year for some reason. Well if I ne, they will arrest, fine and possibly imprison me.
Now I dont need the BBC to survive, but the motorway is quite vital to my way of life and income. In that respect 150 nije a lot. If I work a little bit harder, charge my customers an extra few quid then perhaps Ill make the money in no time. That is of course just what they want everyone to do. I dont want to pay any more to drive my car on badly maintained roads and neither do you.
The trouble is that if we all ignore this it wont go away. Indeed it will come to bite us very badly indeed, like the urban fox in your suburban garden with keys to the patio doors. Yes, news agendas are there to distract us from whats really going on, whether it is the killer NHS, or ways of squeezing more money out of drivers.
So ciji written to their MP, made a banner or mixed the first Molotov?
