MODERATORS
And their roads? What about their roads? Do their highways pay for themselves? Why is it that public transit must always be budget neutral or make a profit, but it's perfectly okay if, like in the US, the government pays $10 for every $1 a driver spends on driving?
Cars are heavily taxed in the Netherlands, afaik both when you buy them and then yearly.
Every three months for me. Around 100-150 eur.
That's not what I'd call heavily taxed but it's better than Germany where it's around 50-350 annually.
