Fuel tax may go up

Here's an idea...

How about cutting the salaries of all those legilators by, say 10 percent, that should help to cover the cost that 1 cent per gallon might generate. Better yet, make it 25 percent.

Its politics as usual in Penssylvania...charge a tax, then steal from what the taxpayers have paid for some other purpose; then charge them more tax.

And they call this a common"wealth"? The only wealth I'm seeing is that which is lining the pockets of the politicians and oil companies.

These legilators should be going after the oil companies who own or provide gas to these stations, to have leaking tanks replaced or removed. Why do they insist on sticking it to us (the taxpayers) everytime they want more money?
