and the people themselves, they pretty well know whether

a person can do the job or not.

MR. SAYRE: I would like to nsk a side question
|
|
4
|
as to whether you feel earmarked taxes, at least as to
|
|
5
|
additional earmarked taxes are concerned, could pose a
|
|
6
|
danger in structuring the revenue system in Maryland?
|
|
7
|
MR. GOLDSTE1N: Let we see if I understand your
|
|
8
|
question, earmarked taxes?
|
|
9
|
MR. SAYRE: Dedicated taxes, where the taxes
|
|
10
|
are dedicated out of the general Treasury.

|
MR. GOLDSTEIN: Highways? You ore talking
|
|
12
|
about gasoline, titling?
|
|
13
|
MR. SAYRE: Those are existing.
|
|

|
MR. GOLDSTEIN: They are dedicated to the
|
|
15
|
construction of primary, secondary roads, matching funds,
|
|
16
|
through your interstate roads. Maryland has had that
|
|
17
|
system. At one time, we tried to write it in the Consti-
|
|
18
|
tution. In fact, I tried to lead the fight to get it in
|
|
19
|
the Constitution, and I believe when a highway user goes
|
|
20
|
out here and pays his or her money, for titling a car,
|
|
21
|
gasoline, those monies should be used for those highway
