12 cents per gallon? I wish.
In Canada we pay as 45 cents tax per litre. That’s the equivalent of $1.70 tax per US gallon. And yes, every year the politicians want us to pay more.
Between state and federal taxes Californians pay close to .90 cents per gallon. The .12 cents was an additional state gas tax hike on top of existing state gas tax that occurred Nov 1st supposedly to pay for road repair.
