OK lets look at it this way, people pay more fuel tax, so people eat out less, restraints and their suppliers get less business and end up laying off people, that is just one ripple effect. This is why I hate the Democratic party as they think they can tax their way out of every problem, if it moves tax it! Oh an we need a new social program as the people are too stupid to take care of them selves, this is completely stupid thinking.I believe in free enterprise where it is survival of the fittest, where you eather make a profit and live well or starve it is up to you not some stupid government hand out.
