Re:A lot less invasive (Score 1)

A lot less invasive would be to prevent the governor and legislature from "borrowing" from the pool of tax dollars that the gasoline tax is deposited into. Currently billions have been siphoned off to pay for other government spending with nothing but a long term IOU. Several years ago the people of California passed a referendum to prevent the legislature from spending this money on anything other than transportation infrastructure, but that's hardly deterred them from "borrowing" the money for other purposes.
