More people driving than ever and still they cannot get enough money from the gas taxes. Says something about the problem right there.....the problem is and always will be government.

[Don Corleone]

Its quite obvious that they are all on one side.AGAINST the citizens. Fire ‘em all!

It's Bi-partisan!- RINO's are the worst!

No, what's 'worst' is the fact that it is BI Partisan. It's way past time for a 3rd party that will look at you as an individual, free American and not as a revenue source.

Two senators unveiled a bipartisan plan Wednesday to raise federal gasoline and diesel taxes...

I thought only the House could propose revenue bills.

Raise taxes.....There’s the answer!

[blueunicorn6]

I’m always amazed at how many people in government have to hurt me in order to help me. They Democrats also want me to die so I can have a better life.

Boehner Republicans and Obama Democrats have no effective differences.

Why would any Republican vote for a Boehner Republican in 2014?

Congress hasn’t thought through that if the minimum wage goes up then that gas tax won’t be worth what it is today. Not that they ever think through anything these days.

[NTHockey]

OK, on one condition - Congress pays for its own gas.

[CharlesWayneCT]

Well, they did force everybody to drive cars that get much better gas mileage. So now people use less gas. So they need to raise taxes.

And they also taxed per gallon, rather than per dollar, which seemed good when gas was cheap, but now with inflation the tax is half what it was before.

Funny how on the rare occasions that a democrat like Manchin joins with a republican to support a republican idea, the media never says it is a “bi-partisan” idea, they’ll say “Manchin breaks rank to support REPUBLICAN bill.”

[FlingWingFlyer]

More clowns who need to be primaried. Will the greedy thieves on Capitol Hill ever be satisfied? America needs a gas tax increase like we need a hole in the head.

[Artie]

Never dawns on these morons to not loot the treasury. More taxes, that’ll solve the problem! I’m waiting for the eligibility age on SS to become 90.

[jmcenanly]

Do these people realize what high fuel prices are doing to us? They not only raise the price of fuel, but of anything that needs fuel to be produced or transported.

[dcwusmc]

Don’t all bills dealing with money (taxes and spending) have to originate in the House? If so, this is illegal on the face of it!

[BobL]

You may not understand this, but I PAY FOR IT out of my gas tax.

In any case, it’s not an issue for me - by the time they raise rates high enough to hurt me, there won’t be anyone else left on the roads. My problem is the CRONY CAPITALISM that ALWAYS arises with these schemes. Although others may not care.
