Just wondering what others think of this proposed bike tax. Personally, it seems idiotic. Why tax the solution, and especially when we already pay tax? The argument that accepting a tax gives cyclists weight legally fails to recognize the number of times throughout history that such a compromise has never produced what it promised. It comes from the old paradigm based on power, and not the new one based on what works for everyone.
And may I point out that no other country that takes cycling as transportation seriously taxes its citizens in this insulting manner. In fact, the cause of the problem - motor vehicles - is taxed heavily to provide services for cyclists. Hope this post isn't too OT- I really look forward to hearing what others have to say.
