In Chicago, for example, on March 25, the average price for a gallon of regular was $4.85. Two years earlier, on March 25, 2020, when Donald Trump was president, the price there was $2.16. In Los Angeles, the price late last week was $5.91, compared with $3.08 just two years ago.
The solution should be crystal clear: Drill here and drill now. And permanently lower gasoline taxes as well. But Democrats are floating a number of government “solutions” to the supply problem that their policies created.
Biden is fond of blaming Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine for today’s hyperinflated prices, but the real culprit is the War on Oil, led by former bartender Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who can now afford to drive a snow-white Tesla Model 3. The New York Democrat pays no gas taxes for her Model 3.
But for every gallon of gasoline, the average Chicago motorist pays 81.4 cents in federal, state, and city taxes, the latter of which was raised by 3 cents on New Year’s Day 2021.
For the average Californian, taxes and fees are even worse, totaling $1.18 per gallon. California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s “solution”? Eight hundred dollars per household in rebates.
Newsom proposes to offer $400 debit cards to every vehicle owner in the state, limited to two vehicles per household. There would be no income-eligibility restrictions, so multimillionaires such as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her fellow California Democrat, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, and their husbands would each receive $800.
The debit cards would even go to drivers who own electric cars. To ensure “equity,” they would also be sent to illegal aliens who have registered vehicles.
For those who can’t afford even one car, Newsom’s proposal includes $750 million to give public transit users free rides for three months. Not surprisingly, it also features $500 million for projects throughout the state that promote biking and walking.
Getting in touch with his inner Biden, Newsom explained why he was willing to give away $11 billion of the state’s budget surplus. “We’re taking immediate action to get money directly into the pockets of...

Riddle me this: HOW does an ILLEGAL register a vehicle?
ReplyDeleteRight, so they argue and posture for two weeks, fiddle with the gas tax a bit to "solve" (translation: not make a dent in) a problem that the unelected and unaccountable cabal of leftist, globalist America haters running .gov created. Then after their catered ribbon cutting, silver shovel, pat themselves on the back until they need shoulder surgery grandstanding, they then have to create a new tax to replace the "revenue" that they're missing out on by fiddling with the gas tax. That will take weeks as well and then THAT tax will remain even after the gas tax fiddle sunsets in 90 days.
ReplyDeleteAnd so it goes.
