Yesterday, a news story broke about a Washington State Representative who favors adding a “transportation tax” on the sales of bicycles because “bicyclists are actually polluting when they ride”.  His rationale is that because we exhale CO2, we’re polluters.  Well, yes, but apparently .01% as much as a car.

Can we please elect representatives that have at least a basic understanding of science?

Also, if you read the article, I think we pay for roads with taxes, not by driving cars on them..

Is it Monday yet?
