Let's be more fair and increase the gas taxes. In my state, the tobacco revenue is $1.1 Billion annually and the gas tax brings in $1.0 Billion. I say let's hit everyone, not just smokers and drinkers, and double the gas tax. It is a lifestyle choice to drive, so let's tax that behaviour!

Won't work - according to the antis driving is a necessity, not a luxury or choice.
