Everything but public transportation.

The fact that states are thinking of pausing the tax just pisses my EV driving ass off. Here they made registration more expensive for EVs because "we don't pay gas tax" so if they suspend it what are the chances we EV drivers get a refund? I bet its less than zero.

Meanwhite the drivers of the polluters and gas guzzlers get a discound to continue to pollute. They should be making EVs more desirable by having no tax or extra fees, make others jealous and have FOMO.

US is burning through cash at a unprecedented rate and nobody seems to be talking about it.

Remember how some car drivers get mad about cyclists because they feel like cyclists don't pay for roads because bikes don't pay gas tax?

It was already so low that the impact of removing it is going to be nothing

I was under the impression that gas taxes paid for roads, in that case how do they plan to fund all the road maintenance that decades of overfunding road construction while underfunding transit has created a need for?

Who wants to bet when the cut the taxes that the companies will just pocket the difference. Same as the tariffs. All these things supposed to be helping normal people end up helping the already rich. So weird. /s

If only people didn't need to commute to an office 3-5 days a week! Gee, if only that was proven to work at scale for multiple years!

Check this guy out!

The gummit don’t need money right? We just live off debt. 50 billion a week?

How about just paying out the tax money directly to people instead?

Still 2/3 of the inflation adjusted price in 07 under Bush, surprisingly.

Less funding for crumbling highways, bridges, and roads. But keep driving! We won't rethink public transit or automotive dependency. We won't spend the money more wisely or make transportation more efficient. Nope, keep feeding the gas dependence to justify more oil wars!

If only there was an alternative fuel source for vehicles that we were in the middle of investing in that may have paid off in situations like this.

A shame that doesn’t exist.

This is building a great case for america to

1. Invest in better public transit infrastructure
2. Adopt EVs even faster
3. Make biking a safer transportation choice for everyone

But...

It won't.

$0.184 a gallon.

So that $5.00 price I saw the other day would be $4.816. Not a significant improvement. Even losing my states $0.40 tax would make it $4.416.

How about we tax the producers of the gas instead of the consumers? Same gas tax, but it comes from the rich fat cats who can afford it. The oil companies have a fuck ton of money and all the do is lobby and leech off government resources.

What are your fuel costs normally? Because 99p per litre of the most expensive diesel there is a fucking steal.

It’s $6 in California; I’ve heard it’s more expensive here, too, as it is refined more and better for engine.

Wow. We have not even begun to see the deficit spending apparently. talk about go brrrr. go brrrrrr indeed.
