If we wanted a pay to play model, fuel tax is a great idea. But based on the breakdown of my city's funding, basically none of the roads are paid for by it.

The poor sap at the beginning of the road absolutely pays an equal amount. It's actually an interesting problem I'll try not to tangent on. You've got a road and each person needs a certain fraction of it. How do you equitably fund the road?
