Excerpt:
State Senator John Putney (R) has introduced a bill that would require bicyclists to get a license and pay a $10 license fee. This fee is basically a tax on people to ride their bikes. The bill says you don’t need to license to ride on municipal streets, on designated bike paths, or in parades (which seems like pretty much anywhere people ride bikes). Money collected would be deposited in the road use tax fund.
This bill doesn’t seem to accomplish much of anything, except expanding big government and extending government into your garage.
