Question:
- Basic Summary Statistics Problem: Percent of State Expenditures for Roads and Bridges that comes from user fees. An article noted that owners of EV vehicles do not pay gas taxes that are often designated for building and maintaining roads and bridges. This would violate the benefit principlethe idea that the people paying the taxes and fees should be the ones to benefit from them. A counter argument noted that gas taxes are but one part of expense of roads, and we should also count licensing, fees, tolls, and other state money, as well as federal money. All of this got me thinking how much of state road budgets come from user sources. I found some data for the fifty states and the District of Columbia n from the Tax Foundation. The data are the percent the data are expressed as the proportion times of the total state budget for roads and bridges that comes from gas taxes, license fees, tolls, and other vehicle fees.
