Where part of the money goes



I saw this on the gas pump when I stopped to get gas the other day. I'd never seen anything like this before, but I think it's a good idea. It also shows you what an idiotic idea it is to repeal the federal tax on gas for a short period of time-- there are a billion reasons why I believe that idea is bonkers, but for one thing, as you can see, it would not really make much of a difference in what you're spending at the pump. The real issue is the price of oil, not the taxes you pay.

The real issue is the oil execs making billions of dollars a year ... Who needs that much money?!
