Sub $3.00 gas

[HiBoy63]

Looks like the northern tier states are still higher. Its $3.29 here in this part of Washington St.

Too many liberals and high taxes

Hit that tax nail right on the head. Most of the libs over on the wet side of the hills kind of dictate how this state is going to run. Alot of our tax dollars for gas go to keep the fairy system on that side of the state up and running. Something us drysiders very rarley if ever use. On a side note it was down to $3.23 today.

I calculated this out once - I'll ballpark it this time.
TOTAL tax liability of an oil company is around 40% - this is ADDED to the actual cost of the fuel!
State & Fed taxes (yea MORE fed taxes) at the pump are around 15%.
That is 55% of everything what you pay for a gallon of gas goes for taxes of one type or another.
The ones charging these taxes keep telling us that something needs done about the evil rich oil companies (the cheby volt is one of their solutions) meanwhile they are getting $150 of the $3.00 you pay for gas!
Gas companies & gas stations make about .03-.05 per gallon each.
Do the oil companies make alot of money? Damn straight - but it's on volume not high prices.
Do you have any idea how many things other than your fuel tank have petroleum products in them?
How many gallons of just gas are sold per day?
Diesel?
Quarts of oil?
Even jars of Vaseline?
Think about it......................

It's about that, it's about to go up in price soon they said on the news tonight. Look at every state that borders the gulf of Mexico. We have oil wells in the gulf and on land and I have no idea how many are around my house. 20 miles from here is 2 refineries. There is no reason for this. Look at how many oil wells are in this country and all the stored up oil we have.
