Prices likely going up but not because of a boost to oil. They just want to tax us more to pay for stuff that was supposed to be paid for with other taxes that they diverted to pay for other stuff. Damn I hate our legislators.

quote:

A bill that would increase Louisiana's gasoline tax by 17 cents per gallon, and raise $510 million per year, cleared its first hurdle Tuesday afternoon when the House Ways and Means Committee approved it.


quote:

The proposal, House Bill 632 by Rep. Steve Carter, R-Baton Rouge, next faces action in the full House in the final weeks of the 2017 regular legislative session. The vote was 9-7 and followed three hours of debate.

Well, I have to say this is shocking news to me. I wagered my nest egg and most of my liquid assets speculating in the truck nut market.

Those construction companies and lobbyists are about to start slobbering JBE from the tip of his cock all the way to his balloon knot.

I actually watched the debate today and those in opposition sounded like short-sighted dolts.

Barry Ivey, R-Central; Paula Davis, R-Baton Rouge; Clay Schexnayder, R-Sorrento; Julie Stokes, R-Kenner

Here are your 4 house members who need to be replaced in the next election for supporting this 18 cents a gallon tax hike.
