If autos were taxed their fair share - they should be taxed more than Real Estate - yet property taxes are a much larger portion of municipal revenues...
Gas taxes in most states have a very small percentage (or none) of municipal budgets (52% of the city that is roads and parking lots).
Gas taxes mainly pay for state routes (state level) and highways (federal level). This is a VERY small percentage of the total road network.
