It will never happen! In 1913 the Gov. started the Federal Income Tax to support the war effort. Did they ever reduce, delay, withdraw, or rescind that costly law?

You're probably right, but maybe we'll get lucky. Bill Clinton raised the federal gas tax $.043 cents per gallon in 1993 as part of his wave of tax increases, and because of that we now pay a whopping $.184 cents per gallon in federal tax. Worse, that number does not include any State taxes.
