Travel Costing
The current system of travel costing has been leaving out the second most important (and costly) part of the roadway system and that is CONTRUCTION AND MAINTENANCE. Why is it that those who are supposed to know what a roadway system is (and that includes the White House) never point out that even if we double the mpg we will have to pay more for the gas/diesel we use in order to continue to have a roadway system we can use. So now there are three parts to this problem: 1) MPG and the supply and demand system will fix this 2) A failing infrastructure that was supposed to not only maintain the American roadway system but to always improve it. This definitely is not happening when you travel and use this failing system of roads, bridges, etc. and finally 3) World consumption is on the increase and will continue until there is no more of these fuel products. Now, are you really depressed?
