I'm pretty sure it was proposed by Democrats and it is the most ignorant shit I've ever heard. You think you can just chop out that much money without huge consequences?Originally posted by stickyfingerzdotnetSo ummm you think thats a bad idea? lol I think they should drop all the taxes on gas.

Actually I've heard that the taxes on gas is more like .43 cents a gallon. But I could be wrong. Everyone's math seems to be as mixed on this as anything involving the government.
No fear. They will find something else to tax in place of it.

Yes less money spent on gas, means more money spent on other goods. Trickle down economics does work, and always has. The more the Government takes the less we can spend, and the less we all make. The more we make (as Im sure you know) The more taxes we pay in. Maybe I need to make you a flow chart or something.... Trust me the fookin government has more than enough to do what needs done. It just needs to cut all the pork, and all the unecessary social programs going on.Comment

Our income is lowered by "Federal Income Taxes."
At least in California, I pay even MORE as "Self Employment Tax".
Then to top it off, state taxes. (Unless your in Nevada)
THEN, the ice on the cake - ANYTIME WE BUY ANYTHING at a store, its taxed.
They should take the extra tax off gas, AND LEARN HOW TO SPEND OUR MONEY BETTER. i.e. not starting unneeded multi-billion dollar wars.
I cant believe any of you idiots would be against them removing a tax.Comment

Oh dear fucking God. The proposal is to knock it off for 2 fucking months. That would be a big ass whoopity fucking doo in your pocket but a major dent to the money collected overall. You really think $3.20 / gallon to $3.02 is going to save you pain at the gas pumps? Helps nothing, hurts much.Originally posted by Xplicit

You don't think that's a fair trade?Originally posted by PR_TomComment

I agree that cutting the tax all together is a major mistake. Lowering it would be a better idea. If they are getting .18 per gallon, then drop it to .15 for 6 months, and then to .12 6 months later, and so on until it is arounf .05 One way or another the government needs money to work on, and we have to pay it. They dont do it because it is fun.PornGuy skype me pornguy_epic

Does anyone here even know how much money cutting taxes on gas would actually be overall?
The US uses 9 MILLION barrels of motor gasoline each _DAY_.
The US uses 3.8 MILLION barrels of diesel fuel each _DAY_.
Plus another 1.7 MILLION in jet fuel daily. Which totals to about 15 million barrels total consumption DAILY by the transportation sector. Thats around 2.5 gallons per person, per day!
http://tonto.eia.doe.gov/dnav/pet/pe..._wpsup_k_w.htm
Thats around _DOUBLE_ the amount of other industrialized countries.
http://www.eia.doe.gov/pub/oil_gas/p...ns_per_cap.htm
Maybe instead of cutting taxes on oil you guys should just invest in better technology so you can lower your consumption?"Think about it a little more and you'll agree with me, because you're smart and I'm right."

There is no such thing as "removing" a tax. Lost revenues will be made up for elsewhere. For instance, the budget cuts in federal money going to the states may look good on paper but my city responded by increasing everyone's property tax. In my case the assessed value of my property doubled what it was on the previous year's tax bill.Originally posted by Xplicit
