The difference is that it is an additional tax. Above and beyond the Federal Gasoline Excise tax.”””
This is a particularly hard attack on the western half of the USA.
Distances out here are much longer & towns are further apart than east of the Mississippi. I go 48 miles round trip just to the grocery store. 12 miles rount trip to the post office.
Unfair, to say the least.
The Obamistas hate Indians. That was one of the first things the evil Sebelius person was going to do with Obama care ~ force reservation Indians to open up their clinics and any hospitals to people from large cities ~ I gather the view is better in the reservations or something.
We know that old cow hates Indians.
I hear you. This is a hard, nasty attack on the more conservative and more rural areas of the US in the West, the Great Plains, and the South. I’m out here in west, in the wide open spaces, and sometimes I have to drive a 90-mile round trip to see a sporting event or a concert in the nearest big city. These liberals in Washington have no idea how far apart everything is once you cross the Appalachian mountains. And they don’t care how far we have to drive because they’re crazy nuts who think cars and trucks are “destructive”, and they want to pack us in close together in compressed little western cities where we all have to ride public transportation.
They don’t get it. I’m out here in the wide open spaces precisely because I like the scenery and geography out here, and I don’t like living in compressed crime-infested cities and I hate riding in packed mass transit systems that are also terrorism targets. If they ever try to put a GPS device in my vehicle I will break the thing immediately one way or another.
