Deeds On the Ropes on Taxes

Creigh Deeds tries -- and fails -- to thread the needle on his plans to raise taxes. He says he will not raise "general fund" taxes -- but is forced to admit that gasoline taxes go into the Transportation Trust Fund. Deeds will raise taxes.

taxes pay for roads, taxes pay for schools, firefighters, and lots more stuff that you need every day. If you are so against paying this fee, then stop paying and stay off the roads, refuse fire fighting for your property, and go live on the high seas or on the moon. You'll pay tax no matter what, and most of it goes to good stuff like medicare, and super smooth roads, that allow you to efficiently do business with other people who haul stuff or sell products. Jeez THINK

Deeds will win the election easily - his opponent is a religious fanatic who believes the Earth is 6,040 yrs old.

Were you wrong, or were you very wrong?

Good luck Virginia. Hopefully, you'll think twice about voting for a believer in conservative thought who applies their ideology to everyone except their family and friends.
