<< Here in Minnesota, state and federal taxes account for $ .33 per gallon
of unleaded gas. I heard George W. Bush recommend a suspension of fuel
taxes until prices fall better in line. >>

Aren't a major portion of gasolene taxes used for road repair and
construction? Drop the taxes and you cut the budget for repairing our
roads. Based on the crappy conditions of Illinois roads with taxes in
place, I prefer biting the bullet and pay the tax, then saving gas money
by walking, riding a bicycle, small motorcycle to places close by...and not
buying dumb vehicles like SUV's and 4x4 pickups to carry one person to
work.
