When trucks pay for their own highways and airports pay for their own airports, I'll support cutting $$$ for AMTRAK.

As someone that drove a semi for 16 years and paid fuel tax I can tell you with certainty that trucks more than pay for the roads they travel on. If all of the tax money collected from the sale of fuel was only used for maintaining the highway system, there would not be a pothole anywhere in the country.

How much did they pay for Federal/State Highway construction?  How much do the taxes cover n repairs more (or less) than the damage they do?
