raising the gasoline tax to improve a state road system hurt by four years of diverting transportation funds to tighten budget gaps.

Stop diverting the funds. Start a charity to pay for what ever low life left wing group is sucking up the cash. Problem solved.

All left wing programs should be paid for by charity. If the nation thinks they're important, they'll give. Stealing from the innocent isn't the answer.

Exactly! If the roads are underfunded for repairs because the funds are diverted elsewhere, adding more money to the diverted funds will not help.

I thought part of the gas tax was a percentage of the estimated price. When gas price were high last year, someone complained that the estimation process was flawed and resulted in people paying more tax than they should (perhaps when the prices were declining?). This article makes it seem like a fixed price per gallon.
