Congress mammoth farm bill restores the imposition of an extra fee on home heating oil, hitting consumers in cold-weather states just as utility costs are spiking.

Right now K1 heating fuel is over $700.00 for 150 Gallons(minimum delivery). 1 traditional fuel tank holds 275 Gallons. Multiply that by a couple of tanks for best case. Then do the math on what it is costing many people to heat their homes.
There you go, someone is getting a kickback.
Possible that commie f*ck-wad Joe Kennedy (aren’t they all?), friend of Hugo Chavez and the “Venezualan people.” Joey-boy ran the commie Hugo’s oil-for-kennedys program.
Off road diesel is dyed red and moves into home heating and mining, logging, etc.
How will anyone know which gallon to tax ?
They know. Mrs. Peet works for a small regional fuel company and does taxes and suchlike accounting. Record-keeping is finnicky to say the least. You can cheat if you want, but you better be willing to do the time if you get caught...
I buy dyed diesel by the 5-gallon can for my Cub Cadet tractor. You can not use it (legally) in on-road vehicles since the (same as gasoline) tax for highway maintenence isn’t levied on dyed diesel.
Reminds me of a joke (doesn’t EVERYthing?)
[Orvill and Cooter are sittin’ on the front porch after a long day workin’ in the fields.]
Orvill: Hey, Cooter, lookey there.
Cooter: Wut?
Orvill: Ain’t them city folk siphonin’ fuel out of your Deere?
Cooter: Yep.
Orvill: Aintcha gonna do anythin’ about it?
Cooter: Nope.
Orvill: Why not?
Cooter: I wanna see how far that fancy automobile goes on deisel...
Nah, this is for the common good, trust them.
D’joo read this crap? No matter, by the time I can put some oil in the now-empty tank, I’ll have survived a third winter on it anyways!
I don’t think the Feds will be happy until people start burning garbage inside their houses to stay warm in the winter.
