If gas taxes were increased, wouldn't you be less likely to drive more, or buy a vehicle that uses less fuel? Remember, I'm calling for a revenue neutral solution with a corresponding cut in income taxes.

I drive a V8 extended cab Chevy truck ... and didn't blink at $3.00+ per gallon.

By the by, out of the $2.19 per gallon I paid yesterday, $.583 per gallon is ALREADY tax .. the state and feds make 6 times as much per gallon as the "greedy oil companies" do
