federal tax is around 50 cents per gallon

so the real price of a gallon of gas is around $2.00

Constitutional amendment : there should only be 1 kind of tax so that we all know what we pay . no progressive but a flat tax of 10% sales tax. no deductions and all governments at all levels divide that 10%.1 tax to cover all government expenses . no property tax. abolish the IRS.

The federal gasoline tax is 18.4 cpg.

Most of the states have their own taxes higher than that.
