Not sure about other states but fed/state taxes @ the pump here are 19%. Take the 19% & tax the profits from the oil companys!

Re: Nort's corner gas station.
Just bought f""ckin DIESEL for $3.29 . . . . OMG.
Didn't fill 'er up, cause I'm * * * hoping * * * it'll drop a few. - yeah right.
Anybody wanna buy an offshore boat ? ? ? I got twin big-blocks, but she'll run just fine on one of em. . . . just don't try docking ( or getting on plane ).
Holy Damn. . . . it's the Apocalypse. . . . help me.
( psssst - don't tell anybody, but there's a BUNCH of oil in Eye-rack. Pretty sure we got troops there that could ensure a pretty good flow. ) . . . don't tell anybody.
