Another question. This lists cents per gallon, which is what I asked for. But I thought I heard it was a percentage per gallon. Which would point out even more govn’t corruption. Is this true.

depends on locale whether its 'per gal.' or '% of price'...

its definately to goobermints advantage in the latter to see pump prices rise...

and remember that these are merely 'at the pump' taxes which is beyond all the various taxes/'fees'/regulators crap that is embedded at every level of production before it reaches the pump...

after all this, *then* the companies are taxed on their profits, which of course has been folded into the beginning price of doing business, and the cycle repeats...

i keep thinkin of all those 'gov credit cards' that are used by the millions everyday, and the 'taxes' that the co-signer [ie taxpayer] is recycling for every gallon in the speedtrap cruiser...
