Here is age=&vpage=2" target=_blank rel="nofollow">his latest claim,
"There is about $2.30 environmental/dumbarse tax per gallon."
And, here is the response:@TexINS: What are you talking about? There is not $2.30 of tax per gallon. And, the tax on the gallon of gas is largely a Republican thing. It doubled under Raegan. The tax went up under George Bush more than Clinton. The tax  on the federal level is ONLY 18.4¢. The rest of the tax is imposed by Texas itself.Per wikipedia,
Fuel taxes in the United States vary by state. The United States federal excise tax on gasoline is 18.4 cents per gallon (4.86 ¢/L) and 24.4 cents per gallon (6.45 ¢/L) for diesel fuel. On average, as of April 2012, state and local taxes add 31.1 cents to gasoline and 30.2 cents to diesel for a total US average fuel tax of 49.5 cents per gallon for gas (13.07 ¢/L) and 54.6 cents per gallon for diesel (14.42 ¢/L).[11]The state and local tax figure includes fixed per gallon taxes as well as taxes that are a percentage of the sales price.
If you'd actually consider that much of our foreign military intervention is to secure fossil fuels the price of the fuel doesn't properly adjust to fund that intervention and is therefore undervalued. 4951

Another reason to drill off the coasts and in Alaska. Even more the reason to build the Keystone pipline. We can produce fuel for ourselves and we won't ever have to send a soldier to that part of the world (unless they try to mess with Israel, then we kick some ****). 4951

@TexINS: How much oil do you think Alaska has?

@PedroDePacas Because he is mentally retarded. He must still be mad from the other day when he got schooled. You know, the night he couldn't sleep and got so mad at me that he had to create a whole new thread. So deperately trying to prove he is the smartest man in the room. @EvanCarroll how about getting some self respect.   4951

@EvanCarroll If I Didn't you would not be starting these threads. You must have slept one hour that night. Your poor boyfriend had to listen to you cry about getting your head handed to you on a message board. 4951

@EvanCarroll again you misrepresent another person on a message board. Taking only one sentence from my paragraph. If you actually had a brain you would have understood the $2.30 was a cost representing how inflated our gas prices are due to regulation. But due to your medication or your mental disability you went right after the number, went to wikipedia and posted your "look at me. look at me" thread.You are worthless.  4951

@TexINS: What regulation? Cite your source. How do you figure the prices would drop to $1 if it wasn't for regulation? Make a less vague claim so I can make a new thread about how you were wrong.

@EvanCarroll  no, you go find me a source to tell me prices wouldn't drop. While you are at it, cite the source where I said $1. 4951

@TexINS: I can never find you a source that would say prices wouldn't drop. You're trying to prove the existence of a hypothetical phenomenon: regulations down, price per gallon $2.30 lower. I'm claiming you pulled that number out of your ***.
The price per gallon right now is $3.43 If you're saying the price will go down $2.30 from the current price because of this "regulation tax", then you're saying the proper market price of gas in the United States would be $1.13. That's crazy. 4951

@TexINS: It's deduction $3.43 (reality) - $2.30 (your claim of inflation to regulation) = $1.13 (Market price)
The price of gas, adjusted for inflation, has never been $1.13.Loading Image...Source: http://inflationdata.com/Inflation/images/charts/Oil/Inflation_adjusted_gasoline_price_med.jpg 4951
