Since it is against Federal Law (Clinton) to post Federal Taxes on the Gasoline pump, would you do the honors for us State by State?
IOW, the MSM gins up their “Pain at the Pump” Campaign, so give it to us straight, how much of that “pain” is Federal Taxes?
Federal Tax
Gasoline = 18.4¢/gal
Diesel = 24.4¢/gal
Average State taxes (on top of Federal)
Gasoline = 22.68¢/gal
Diesel = 23.18¢/gal
How much tax do we pay on a gallon of gasoline and diesel fuel? (Energy Information Administration)

Note: Some states now have added percentage tax in addition to tax per gallon. The percentage tax automatically rises with the price per gallon. Therefore it is important to know when the data you look at was updated.
