Gas Price Goes Up Monday

I'm reminded that Monday the price of gasoline will go up by 3.5 cents due to an increase in the state gas tax. Best buy your next tank of gas by Sunday.

The oil company profit per gallon varies between 7 to 25 cents. State and federal taxes take up around 70 cents per gallon. Despite that, I'm sure the greedy oil companies will be blamed for the price increase, assuming anybody notices.

I guess but you must remember that the oil companies are subsidized by the government don't think they won't get a piece of the action and just wait intell the commander in chief starts signing all those executive orders to curve climate change which would be a good thing if it wasn't designed to benefit the big corporation pritty soon every time you exhale or a cow farts well have to pay a tax to a corporation many of whom are the one causing the most pollution

most of the irs code is designed to aid one business or another. this means donations to canadates. the oil companies are just one of thousands.

Oh you locals complaining about the gas prices are hilarious. My brother in the Czech Republic is paying the equivalent of $8 or $9 per gallon for his gas. Believe it or not compared to other countries, you guys have it made. $3.56 per gallon where I am. Lovin it.
