Hi Vendome! (from Meremortal).
How much are the state taxes there? Colorado pays 18 cents federal and 22.3 cents state, IIRC.
Here at $2.00 a gallon you are paying $1.60 for the gas.
Compare that to the increase in college tuition over the last 20 years.
I believe our taxes a bit more than enough times what your are...
Which is great because our roads are in such great condition...
