$2.69 here . Our new governor wants to add 9 more cents to our gas tax. They already raised the price of vehicle registration from $99.00 to $127.00 Small change, ours wanted 20 more cents. Ours is trying for a .45 cent raise

Either way we look at the price of fuel, the Local state governments will figure a way to get more money!
Why haven't the states setup a charge for the "ELECTRIC" vehicles to pay a ROAD TAX?
Here in Michigan the woman governor wanted to raise our gas tax $.45 this year. I not aware of where that's gone.

I am in favor of the 9 cent raise here in WI if we can get more infrastructure and road repair etc. from that increase. Our roads can use a lot of repair.

Before jumping on board with any gas tax increase because road repair is needed it is fair to ask how much the current gas tax is and where that money is going. You may be surprised to find out that a large portion of the current gas tax is getting siphoned off (pun intended) to fund all kinds of alternative transportation such as bike trails, metro bus lines and light rail, all pet programs that don't support themselves. If in fact all current gas tax is going to road and bridge infrastructure as intended then consider raising the tax if needed.

I am actually cool with a local transit service, just wish the bus had a hitch on the back for towing trailers. I'd be cool with local transit as well if those who use it funded it without it being subsidized by highway maintenance funds.
