- bertramus 1y agoAs an environmentalist, I am generally in favor of gasoline tax to pay for road maintenance. Without getting into the nuance of that position - I do not disagree with the fact that gas stations in my area break down the added cost per gallon into federal, state, and local tax per gallon. In fact I support it, transparency is important.
