Gas tax to pay migrant costs!!!
3:30 p.m. Germany's finance minister is floating the idea of a European tax on gasoline to help finance the continent's efforts to manage the migrant crisis. The European Union has struggled to find common ground amid the huge influx of people seeking safety and a better life. Germany and Sweden have allowed in large numbers of refugees but many other countries are reluctant to share to pay migrant costs the burden to pay migrant costs
German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble told the daily Sueddeutsche Zeitung on Saturday that "if the funds in national budgets and the European budget aren't enough, then let's agree, for example, to raise a levy on every liter of gasoline at a certain level."
He says "we must secure the Schengen (border-free travel zone) external border now." Schaeuble is a prominent member of Chancellor Angela Merkel's conservative party. But a deputy party leader, Julia Kloeckner, swiftly rejected his proposal — pointing to healthy tax revenues in Germany that produced a government budget surplus last year

It's amazing how people keep voting for politicians who are set on destroying their way of life.
Every government in the EU that accepts these migrants needs kicking out. The migrants don't belong in Europe. |
