Yep. Congress sees all that extra money in peoples pockets, just hang tight. New gas tax is already in the works.

Some people don't realize that while the rest of the country was in a recession the past few years high oil and gas prices kept the economy along the Gulf Coast almost uneffected.

You don't need to lecture me about economics or the will of the government to get their grubby hands on the extra cash.

The regional aspect is one we can't ignore. It is going to affect my business in the Lafayette and Morgan City areas for sure. But, lower fuel prices will help with some of my other customer bases.
