The biggest taxes in the US are state level taxes that go into the Super Fund, and the state road funds. They aren't related to the tax breaks that some oil companies receive.
Also those taxes have nothing to do with the price of gas going up. the price of gas going up is related to the demand produced by other countries that we haven't had to deal with in the past. The taxes have been there for a long time. But increased demand from China and India is very new. > -----Original Message----- > From: Vivec [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Thursday, April 27, 2006 8:49 AM > To: CF-Community > Subject: Re: Tony Snow will be Pres Secretary > > Lol! > > This whole oil thing and the price of gas in the US is one big game. > Gas does not have to be that expensive in the US,gas is taxed heavily > in the States, and these taxes are then nullified by providing > subsidies and breaks to large oil companies. > > I'm sure there will be some investigation at some point that will > reveal this to Americans sometime soon. > > Capitalism at its finest some would say, and they're welcome to the > opinion that this is all good. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:205574 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
