Most of the price of gasoline is taxes.

18% is Federal tax and Virginia tax is 16 cents per gallon. That is not MOST, comes out to about 25%.

Shows how much the Rats have to do to increase Virginia taxes. There are also City and County taxes in many areas. The state tax rate for Pennsylvania is 58.2 cents per gallon plus just the federal excise tax of 18.4 is 76.6 cpg.

Without petroleum imports, of course the price would be far higher.
