Why a commuter tax really sucks

[acroyear]

its the ultimate in taxation without representation. You are being taxed by people you didn't have any choice or vote in.

"The important thing to remember about commuter taxes is that once in place, government officials can raise the rates whenever they need extra cash. As nonresidents, commuters cannot vote these officials out of office." -- a letter in a recent Dr. Gridlock.

Kinda like the way the residents of DC can't vote out all the federal lawmakers that insist on messing with their lives.
