How about we just end this government. Decades of utter failures by lifelong politicians has brought us here. Time to remove every single one of them. You don't like our country? He said government l, as in current government, he never said anything about our country- But then, you already knew that, didn’t you- Words are important.

It is a scam.
If gas tax is eliminated….they will just say they have to increase taxes on the wealthy to keep the highway fund up.
Big government socialists are in charge….redirecting taxes from their voters toward those who don’t support them is the essence of their agenda. You are correct, but plenty of republicans don’t pay federal income taxes either or pay very, very little.

Suspending the gas tax will increase the deficit which will be financed with increasingly expensive debt. That debt will eventually have to be settled with income taxes. So given the choice between a use tax and a politicized income tax I will pick the use tax every time.

Ending the gas tax will absolutely hurt our roads and do little to nothing to help most of us.
We will not get to the green energy they want in our life time without destroying this country first. we don’t have the infrastructure
This is all to destroy nothing these clowns do is for our good. They don’t want us helped if they did they would do away with most of the EPA regulations and red tape for refineries and drill for more oil. Those two things will change our economy for the better.
They are using stupid global warming bs to destroy us and we are letting them We are using are food ,corn, for fuel when it has a better use say in cornbread We quit using the cheapest energy coal to power our country because of bleeding heart nuts
They want EV cars which aren’t a bad idea especially for big cities but there is not enough electric power plants to deliver electricity or infrastructure to get it to the houses
We need to get rid of everything green energy till we at least put in the infrastructure

Ending the gas tax only opens up the idea of taxing you on the mileage you drive.

So you have a something that is currently high due to supply and demand issues at the current price, you artificially lower the price by temporarily reducing the tax on it, therefore demand in theory rises. So the price will?????? I'm just throwing this out there because the government monkeys around with stuff and sometimes what needs to happen is allow market to correct itself. I could say the same about the government messing around with the supply curve of oil which they have absolutely done also. The government throws trillions into the economy because it shut the economy down, created supply chain issues by paying people not to work, created labor inflation by their 15 dollar an hour shpew, then seeks to correct the issue by raising interest rates into an impending recession. Half of what this crew in power is doing is window dressing for the election, the other half is just stupid. When the democrats forced the shutdown by causing mass hysteria about a bad flu year they set in motion a train of events that will take 10 years to unwind. As to the Russians, if we didnt have a bunch of idiots in the White House they would have never set foot in Ukraine so any issues from that lay at the feet of the dems, and the idiot rinos who wasted votes on Mickey mouse.

Just open the gulf and Alaska back up and the price will probably drop a dollar today.
