Does anyone believe Nancy’s new oil tax won’t just be directly passed on to consumers?

Question

I don't get these people. First they say the evil bastards in the oil companies charge too much money so lets tax them then they trust these same evil bastards to pay this tax themselves rather than just adding to the price of gas. What a crock! Nancy's oil tax is really just a gas and heating oil tax! Experts are saying it could add as much as 75 cents per gallon of gas. Who elected this moron?????

Answer 1

you're right. consumers pay taxes, not corporations. nancy is just another idiot in the congress. it was the people in san fransisco that elected her (several times).

Answer 2

Yeah, god forbid the oil companies should pay their fair share of taxes out of their obscene profits! Who the f did you blame when gasoline went to over $3.00 a gallon when Fat Bastard was Speaker of the House? AND it's not a new tax! It's a royalty program that was implemented many years ago that W did force them to pay! The oil companies have been shirking their obligation to pay the money for years. Congress is just making them pay up now.

Here's a clue - don't buy oil! Encourage development of alternative energies! Oh, wait, that won't benefit W's close friends, the oil companies. Can't have THAT!

Answer 3

The idiots of the State of California elected this moron. Tax and spend is what the Dems do best.

Answer 4

I didn't elect her. I saw her being put in a position of power as one of the stupidest things we have ever done.
But I also understand the frustration that led the public to put her there.
Let's face it people she came from San Francisco...what did you really expect???
So much for the first 100 hours.

Answer 5

That's why I call them: Democraps

Answer 6

as if we don't pay enough at the pump.
