“A dirty secret that the rats in Sacramento never tell us is there is a state sales tax on the gasoline.”
Illinois has county, city, and god only knows who else’s taxes on gas. Once these are added to the bill then the state tax is applied. Thus you are paying tax on the tax. Democrats currently run the filthy state and are proposing increases to the whole mess which would make it the highest gas cost of any state...by far.
Thanks for posting this. California has done the same thing for decades:

In spite of these outrageous gas taxes, California streets, roads and highways have gone hell in a hand basket to pay for the illegals in our sanctuary state in the past decade plus.
