Even though he was just bitching about the price needs to come down, and being confronted by "they can only possibly bring it down $0.08, you can by 8 times that amount with taxes".

That eight cents per gallon is the price we pay to have oil and gasoline readily available whenever we need it. Take it away from the producers and it would be the most expensive eight cents consumers ever "got back" from anyone.

Precisely.

We would "save" 8 cents/gallon...but there wouldn't be any gas.

God save us all from the U.S. Congress!
