Which would offer more long term good in this country, Gas tax Holiday or allowing needed pipe lines for transporting oil from supply to demand areas?
Did the China flu-19 stimulus do any good?
Federal tax on gas is 18.4 cents a gallon, at today's prices you won't notice the difference.

Supply and demand, increasing supply is the answer.

Yeah....

My work car holds 15gallons on dead empty. I burn a tank a week.

If I’d fill up, 18.4 x15 =$2.76. Big whoop.

Versus $1.97 gal gas. $1.97 x15 = $29.55. Yesterday $4.19 x 15 = 62.85.

And as much as I hate to say it....
The gas tax is needed for highway funding.


No one likes paying taxes,
and we darned sure know too much is not used properly.
But just cutting taxes without fixing funding issues will lead to
more issues down the road.

Fixing supply is addressing the issue directly.

After, you address the first issue.

Production of crude and refining.

Get Brandon out of the way of the men who produce!

This.

Plus, lower gas prices means more driving creating greater tax revenues. A "win" for both sides.
Chitty policies and chitty results. Every action they take is counterproductive and everything they say is a lie.
Hunterapp: Shirley you jest!
If china joe and his ho were only smart enough or politically savvy enough to just continue President Donald J. Trumps policies they would not be in going down the schitter like they are.
And the United States of America would be so much better off.
But they aren't so we are screwed.
EVERYTHING china joe and his ho have touched they have made things worse for the United States of America - I conclude, now, that they are intentionally doing so!
I don't know why?

Is this really a question?
You’re funny or plain retarded
Any significant tax cut is a good tax cut.

I ask, why not both?
It's just more feel-good crap from your friendly Marxists.
Considering this bullshidt admin won't do anything to produce oil, I'll take the tax cut.

I prefer more production but that won't happen
More inflation.
I think the vast majority of people with multi a digit IQ understand that the gas tax holiday is a silly ass ploy, that will provide no significant help.

Increasing supply and building some more refinerys are the answer. The Bakken comes to mind, why pipe all that oil to Texas then truck it back.
I predict we won’t get either reduction.
What pipeline are you talking abour?

Right now they ship a [bleep] ton from the Bakken on trains to the west coast.
Why ship that oil and canadien oil to Texas and just refine it in N.D
Tax holiday just a way to have the election go the Dems way. It don't cure the problem.
Pipelines without question

To were Texas, dont ya think instead of building a 2,000+ mile pipeline across the U.S a better idea would be say refineries in N.D a better idea. You can only refine so much without adding more refineries, everytime one goes off line because of a shutdown just adds to supply issues
Combo of both makes a Helluva lot more sense

I totally agree. The idiot that shut down the Keystone is the main reason gas prices are high. He says there is nothing he can do about it though. What a fu cking idiot!!! The gas tax holiday is going to do nothing for prices. Gas prices have nearly doubled since Trump left office. Something should be done about that, but it's not going to happen with these idiots in office now. Trust me on that one..

$4.19 is cheap dude. Its approaching $6.00 here in many parts of Nevada.. Supreme is over $6...
I've got an uncle who is same age as me who has done scheduling for refineries all across the U.S for 25 years he told me 10 years ago that there is no shortage biggest problem we have is we need more refineries.
What good does it do to increase a bunch of supply without more ways to refine it.
Most shutdowns are around 6-8 weeks i believe.

Too many people can see through the dems schidt. If anyone votes for them, they deserve to be hung..
The Nation’s infrastructure is aging. Nothing lasts forever. That gas tax pays for replacement and improvement of infrastructure.

Fix the supply side. More pipelines, refining, and drilling.

I retired from 25 years doing design work for TXDOT. No I'm not a PE.
All they're doing is creating another crisis by doing that. But Dems think they can borrow and print money their way out of that.
