Well, it took only four hours after the new President’s swearing-in ceremony for the proposed Secty of Transportation, Pete Buttigieg,  to  “step in it” at his Senate confirmation hearing.   This is of course the group purporting (“pretending” for those of you from Birdsboro) to be the stallwart guardians of the poor and those with lower incomes.   Well, a hike in the federal gasoline tax, to fund transportation projects for good union workers, is the very definition of a regressive tax, one that disproportionately impacts negatively those with lower disposable income.   WHAT THE HECK !

For the first of probably many times, thanks so much to the 81 million of you that numbly decided to put this gang into power !
