"...The proposed budget also includes a recommended increase in the Annual Motor Vehicle License Fee from $10 to $30 per vehicle..."
$30 - $10 = $20 increase for every car in every household
If the average household has two cars, it's a $40 annual increase
$40 / $100,000 = 0.0004 increase
$40 / $50,000 = 0.0008 increase
$40 / $30,000 = 0.00133 increase
$40 / $20,000 = 0.002 increase
Legal theft this is, from the poor for the benefit of the rich

If you make $50,000, your taxes will go up $62, or 0.0124% of your income,
If you make $30,000, your taxes will go up $62, or 0.02066% of your income,
If you make $20,000, your taxes will go up $62, or 0.031% of your income,
