But the license "renewal fee" IS a user fee,it gives you license to
USE the roads;no pay,no use.


Just produce the IL law that says so.


More dishonesty;you KNOW that even in IL,if your plates are expired,you can
be ticketed and that's it's illegal to drive that vehicle,and that
unregistered autos cannot legally be driven on public rodas.


It's illegal to drive with a burned out headlamp and I can be ticketed
for it too. Being illegal and subject to tickets doesn't make a usage tax.

Just produce the law that makes it a usage tax.
If you want to keep whining about bicyclists not paying a specific
'bicycle road usage tax', you're going to have to produce that specific
'auto road usage tax'.

Oh, btw, there is bicycle registration in many towns, just no tax
associated it with it. It's not bicyclists' fault that autos are so
taxed. Autos are likely so taxed because of their popularity. Many things
go on and on and on and don't get taxed until they become popular enough.
I suspect bicycling has never reached that threshold.

Afterall, there are taxes on all sorts of things that are popular and
entirely provided by private companies.
