      I know it's already pretty well established that Murf doesn't have math skills in general, and particularly when it comes to figuring taxes. Nevertheless, I couldn't help but to muse his question.

      If a working person drives 15,000 miles a year, and averages 20 miles per gallon, he or she will use 750 gallons of gas a year. If the additional federal gas tax is 20 cents per gallon, that worker is seeing a whopping $150 a year tax increase.

      I haven't heard what the actual gas tax is proposed to be, and nothing has been voted on yet. But I suspect those numbers end up being close.

      And of course a comprehensive energy plan is going to have tax breaks for energy savings. I'm already getting a big one under the new stimulus package for installing new wondows and a porch door, which I would have done anyway for energy savings alone.

      The math-challenged bitched and whined under Clinton for those 1990's tax policies, and yet anyone that was working prospered those eight years. I hope we get another dose of ignorant crying in the next eight years. I'll be able to purchase a separate lake home if we do.
