With gas prices drifting below $2.00 per gallon, I feel a tax increase coming on. There’s already some talk about it.
The new administration and the new congress will surely see this as a way to pay for the new infrastructure they have been talking about. I’m thinking 10 cents a gallon.
Here in Montana, the state legislature meets in January.
With all those promises made during the last election…and all those potholes…
The current federal tax is 18.4 cents a gallon. Montana is around 27 cents a gallon.
I kind of like paying $35 to fill up my tank, instead of the $80 I paid in June, but that’s just me.

It’s coming, and what they don’t want you to know is they will be pleased when gas hits new high levels next year.
