I was talking about the federal tax, not the state tax, even though those too are regressive.

I wouldn’t object so much to the state gas taxes IF they were used solely for the purpose of road building and maintenance, my objection is when they are used for everything but the intended purpose of them.

The federal government shouldn’t be collecting excise taxes of any kind.

Go re-read your Constitution and get back to me.
