Proposed Gas Tax

Re “Gas Tax Hike for Roadwork Urged,” Feb. 19: Let me see if I have this straight. State government has siphoned off much of the current 18-cent-per-gallon tax money to the general fund. Therefore we should increase the tax by 6 cents per gallon to pay for the road improvements that should have been done with the 18-cent-per-gallon money. I think not.
I am amused that state Legislative Analyst Elizabeth Hill thinks the public is gullible enough to fall for that.
