I’ve got an idea. Since Governor Jay Inslee wants to raise the gas tax for the entire state so the mess in Seattle gets fixed (“Inslee’s proposals face big hurdles,” Jan. 20), ignoring the many problems in Southwest Washington, especially the Columbia River Crossing, Mill Plain/Fourth Plain travel, etc., why don’t we in the Vancouver area just drive across the river and fill up there? Perhaps the loss of the gas tax will wake them up. And how about charging those who use electric cars some type of road tax? What is good for Seattle isn’t necessarily good for the rest of the state. Why should we pay for their improvements?
