As far as where the money goes, it *should* be going to maintain the interstate highway system and local roads--that's not necessarily where the money ends up, particularly in the latter case. As far as being gouged at the pump? No, I don't because I'm well aware that just across the pond the $3.05/gal I pay for premium (no way would I put anything less than premium in my car) would cost me 3 or 4 times as much. Actually, I would like to see the United States ratchet up the price of gas with the extra funds raised going to fund public transportation and/or basic research to get us off of oil. Quote:

The People tended to be small-minded and conservative and not very clever and were even distrustful of cleverness. And so, the children of the revolution were faced with the age-old problem: it wasn’t that you had the wrong kind of government, which was obvious, but that you had the wrong kind of people. As soon as you saw people as things to be measured, they didn’t measure up." (Terry Pratchett) |
