[QUOTE="DriveInDriѵeOut, post: 1285590, member: 44954"] Pet projects.... you mean like roads? Your premis[B]s[/B] is just stupid. Gas Tax is 18.4 cents: 15.44 to Highway Account, 2.86 to Mass Transit, .1 cents to leaking underground storage tank program. When Ronald Reagan took office the tax was 4 cents, he raised it by 9 cents (8 cents to the Highway Account and 1 cent to Mass Transit). George H.W. Bush raised it 5 cents(half to the Highway Trust Fund, half to deficit reduction). Bill Clinton raised it 4.3 cents in 93' going entirely to deficit reduction, and in 97' redirected it all to the Highway Fund. So 20 years since we raised the gas tax. Do you really not understand why it needs to be raised again? News flash, America's infrastructure is crumbling. [/QUOTE]
