I know that the Car Tax was repealed in 1998, but I still pay a portion of what I would have owed except the State paid the rest. The State's burden is enourmous.

Lately, it seems to shot of amount of volunteer for many tasks such as election. In behavior science 101, we were told that the most effective way to change the behavior is couple punishment with reward. It seems that in our justice system, there is no reward. Once can volunteer and do good deed all his/her life, yet one mistake, you can still get $100 parking ticket.
