Low gas tax!

I saw $3.65 at the place where I usually gas up. Would've gassed up but I had to get on to work.


:-) :hi: :pals:

No thanks necessary, just c'mon and turn a red state to blue.

2. Yuck....
...I'm sorry, but with the exception of Charleston and Hilton Head Island, I have no interest in South Carolina. Blech!

7. South Carolina is a beautiful state but I know your sentiment
Hell, I'd move to Vermont if I could find a decent job there. I wonder if I can retire in Vermont?

4. Unfortunately
Low gas tax = crappy roads

So what we save on gas we more than make up in auto repairs.

That's why I don't understand the reluctance to raise gas taxes by a few cents. How the hell could you ever find a 5 cent a gallon gas tax increase when the suppliers raise the price of gas twice that much every frickin day7?
