The author lost me in the intro. Gas taxes, to my understanding, are not percentages. They are specific costs per gallon.

Therefore, the assertion that declining gas prices affect the government cut are seriously fouled up.

“The author lost me in the intro. Gas taxes, to my understanding, are not percentages.”

Same here. If the guy is that CLUELESS how is he even getting published?

I picked up on that "error," too.

I'll cut the author some slack, since I understand there are a number of states where the state sales tax is applied to fuel sales. So in those states, some of those revenues DO rise and fall with the price of fuel.
