That is really stupid, so you are saying you would rather see those Federal funds go to other States and then the broke State we live in try to handle all the road projects internally.  I would rather get out piece of the federal pie as we can and limit what the State needs.  Right now we don't have any additional tax increases looming at the Federal level on us, we do have number tax proposals looming here in Alaska!  You knew perfectly well what I meant or at least I hope you know how the government works... maybe not.
