      They're only bumping it by 3.5 cents. I doubt anyone will notice. Prices jump by triple that overnight, fairly often too. Personally, I wouldn't mind if the gas tax increased a few cents, as long as all that money went to fund road maintenance. The problem is, after you pay it, who knows what it'll be spent on.

          Nope, farthest west I've been was barely across the Mississippi. Not saying that gas taxes actually fund road repairs, just that I wouldn't mind an increase if they actually did. That, and nobody will notice a 3 cent increase.

            Yea its only 3.5 cents a gallon more but its always more more more. Someone posted more takers than makers and that is the truth for sure. I'm a maker and i'm getting the f#$k out of here as soon as I can, going to Arizona! There are so many freeloaders here I can't stand it anymore. Between the freeloaders and the liberals this state has gone to hell! Opps, sorry no politics

                        Anyone that thinks the gas tax is to pay for road repairs is pretty naive. It's going to the same place that Prop 30 tax hike is going, our state pension plan that is imploding under it's own weight. This is just another way for them to delay dealing with the inevitable. Los Angeles is in the same boat, specifically the Dept Water and Power's pension plan which is currently paying retirees more than they made when they were working, not to mention their stupid health plans.
