“A third sector, transportation, would see a tax levied on refined oil products, a Senate source told Reuters last week, with the expectation it would be passed on to consumers when they buy gasoline and other fuel products.”

If the company passes on the tax to the consumer does that constitute a tax increase to consumers? I'm sure Obama will claim it doesn't.

You know the oil companies will be blamed. We've seen that meme before.
