The roads are all bad due to the lack of gas taxes. Oh wait, there should be more taxes now at 4 bucks a gallon, shouldn't there????
Gas taxes are per gallon and not price. As the price goes up people use less so taxes are less. Some have suggested that vehicles be taxed by mileage instead of fuel.

California imposes a sales on gas that is based on the price of each gallon. Therefore, the higher the price of gas the higher that particular tax. Do not know if other states have a similar tax or not.
