Possible Tax Hike Could Increase Gas Prices By 40 Cents

Congress Considers Large Federal Gasoline Tax Increase: Gas prices, already on the rise, could jump significantly if Congress approves a large tax increase to help pay for the Federal Gasoline Tax Fund.

The increase could be as much as 40 cents a gallon. In exchange for the big increase, motorists would have a better chance of driving on better maintained state or federal highways.

Sure, and I am Santa Clause.

Want to get back at the overspending tax hungry feds....stay home more, spend less, and grow your own food. Tax hikes have a negative inverse curve proportionately to the economy...the more you tax, the worse the economy will get. Simple. So how come these highly educated bureaucrats can't figure it out?

Even liberal Microsoft warned the feds: www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aAKluP7yIwJY

Keep on creating destroying thos jobs Obambi...you are doing such a lousy job.

That's what we need.

You know, it's our "duty" to pay more taxes, haven't you heard the commissar-in-chief?


The road to our banana republic is paved with tax increases, you know, the ones we were promised would never happen in a bad economy. You know, it's gotten bad enough that every day brings a new circle of insanity. If I woke up tomorrow and saw a bill in congress to declare the sky orange, it wouldn't amaze me at all. That is frightening.

Think about this for a minute. Americans can be innovative when challenged. How much do want to bet that small businesses will begin exchanging services more frequently and also completing more cash transactions to avoid tax liability? It may not be the right thing to do but the government is driving people into this position with their constant greed and desire to tax anything dead or alive.
