Got to love Obama.  Never met a tax he did not like

Just like diesel, truckers will pay because they just pass the cost on to all of us.

I just saw a report that this is being prompted due to the shrinking amount of fuel being purchased. 

Fed gov't ups MPG standards, pushes hybrids, and forces electric vehicles on the market and now they are trying to figure out how to replace all the gas tax money they are losing.

Those unintended consequences are a bitch.

This is clearly a global warming problem.
