AAA just came out with a report that says that NC has the highest gas prices in the lower 48 states. The only places more expensive are Hawaii and D.C.
We are at about $0.20 higher per gallon than the national average and we are predicted to stay that way for the next 2-3 months.
Quote : | "With gas prices so high, the North Carolina Petroleum Marketers Association wants a cap on the gas tax for about a year while wholesale prices get back under control.
Gov. Mike Easley, however, says the state would lose too much revenue, even with a temporary freeze." |

I guess Governor Easley doesn't mind if the citizens of NC lose too much revenue. A people for the government by the government and all.10/5/2005 8:07:01 AM |

I never realized so few people realized we've got a variable gas tax rate. You've got the base tax and a variable addition based on wholesale prices. Finally people are starting to pay attention...
Easley will never cap gas taxes, the extra $texas will help make it look like the budget deficit has shrunk...and give teh L3ft in the NCGA carte blanche to spend more money next session. 10/5/2005 1:42:40 PM |

Don't blame the left. The right is only interested in fiscal conservatism when the democrats run the show. 10/5/2005 3:16:31 PM |
