"Last I checked, state taxes collected do not go the federal government, or any other state."
Get your facts straight...you need to check harder. 25% of our gas tax leaves our state and is used elsewhere...look it up.
Check your facts, opinions are great, but facts have more weight.
Read the post again. I said "State" tax. The 18.4 cent Federal tax is not a State tax, it is a Federal tax. There is a difference.
