Of course I'm complaining.

 

Our gas is 3.49 per gallon, 37 cents of which is tax, said tax to be used for roads, which amounts to about 2 cents per gallon mile, when it actually costs 3 cents per gallon mile simply to build a mile of road.

 

2 cents per gallon mile doesn't even pay maintenance costs on the road.

 

The high tax on foreign gas usually helps pay for social programs, offsetting the need for higher income taxes.

 

With education and medical costs taking a good chunk of change from Americans pockets, they actually have less disposable income than citizens of most other developed countries.

Yeah I bought some today at the great price (I mean that, this is less than the average) of....

$8.88 per US gallon!

2/3 of that price is taxes.

I'm not bitching... are you? Tongue
