Often political theatre has been used to promote specific political theories or ideals, for example in the way agitprop theatre has been used to further Marxism and the development of communist sympathies. sortir à alger

The purpose of taxing the heavier vehicle is not to discourage it - it is to properly pay for the extra wear and tear on the roads and infrastructure that bigger heavier vehicles cause. The political satire performed by the comic poets at the theatres, had considerable influence on public opinion in the Athenian democracy

In the history of theatre, there is long tradition of performances addressing issues of current events and central to society itself, encouraging consciousness and social change. The political satire performed by the comic poets at the theatres, had considerable influence on public opinion in the Athenian democracy. magnétisme

yea i totally agree with that but just because their car is a bit heavier doesnt mean they should pay like an extra 15% like it should slightly reasonable like there should be different weight categories fer every car and maby the god dang government should stop sniffing crack get their asses out of iraq and instead of spending 3 trillion dollars on a war thats going no where maby that should be spent on the fuel problems or health care or the aging infastructure make the roads stronger to withstand the weight of these new generations of heavy hybrid vehicles and large tucks

and i may be 14 years old but i think my point still stands strong instead of sierra's oh yea well just blow yer head off if you dont lowers the gas prices but yea high gas prices are good but i dont think just plain taxing them is enough for the wear and tear on these roads and their not the only problem even small cars can have a huge toll on the roads as well like for example 2 tonnes time about as many small cars go over the road the should screw over the road some time after a while it may be too much

The purpose of taxing the heavier vehicle is not to discourage it – it is to properly pay for the extra wear and tear on the roads and infrastructure that bigger heavier vehicles cause. Yes, a hybrid that is heavier than a conventional ICE for the same model would pay a slightly higher tax in this scenario (although if we get into the details I suppose most cars might fall below a minimum weight for the tax). Owners of some bigger vehicles need to be aware that their big truck does more damage than just using more fuel. It would have to be adjusted for the amount of miles driven (reflecting more wear and tear on the roads). This is no different than the excise taxes truckers pay for driving their big rigs over US roadways. In the end this might be an incentive for more trucks to become hybrid – the lower fuel costs help offset the vehicle size/weight tax. Anyway, I’m NOT calling my congressional delegation asking for this tax, but if they proposed it, I would not be opposed.

sierra

listen i dont know if yer a girl or a guy or whut ever but honestly shut the hell up you have no idea what you are talking about oh yea lets blow them up violence is the answer hey moron who do you think is paying to get the troops over there for the weapons and for other payments for oh i dont know the actual troops... i dont know maby you! were the next genoration were gonna have all the problems dumped on us and oh my gosh geuss what will happen if we plan on bombin the place gas prices will rise even more! so yea obviously war is the obvious answer to lower gas prices for north america you punk bitch if you dont know what your talking about dont imply shit

and yes i do agree high gas prices are a good idea but its also a bad idea if they stay high because the u.s greenback will plumet again and in a few centuries might just be worth a little more than the asian yen and thats like whut 350 yen is like about 3 dollars and 50 cents and america's not exactly a safe and green place if you know what im saying so yea i think that we should just be more fuel efficient go green screw the gas pumps and you know those thing on the bottem of your body called legs use them they not just there to push pedal's they are there to walk around use a bike run get some exsersize (sorry for my spelling) i will agree there are fuel efficent cars but there is nothing more fuel efficent than using your own 2 legs and feet yes that's what those two thing on the bottem of your body are called and that is my two cents on this subject
