Not humourous and typical "blame the victim" mentality.

to determine how badly separate bicycle
paths are required by the cycling public an announcement might be placed
in local news agencies that "New and safer bicycle paths will be built
on Main Street. The cost of which will be recovered by a tax made on
each and every bicycle owner that uses the facility."


No, the demand is from car owners who want to take the roadway for
themselves.


I suggest that under those conditions there will be very little "need"
for these facilities :-)


Especially if the real benefactorsa, the car owners are the ones who pay.
That mob are worse than any drug addict.


I'm not sure where you are but I would guess that, probably, you live
in a democracy, in which case you must know that the majority get to
dictate to the minority, as has been the case since Athens, in the
second half of the 7th century BC.

So, democratically, cars, or perhaps more properly internal-combustion
powered vehicles, must have first priority to the roads.
