I'm not trying to take sides in the presidential campaign, but what a load of #*&amp;%$#!<br /><br />The federal gas tax amounts to 18.4 cents per gallon. For ease of math, let's assume you get 18.4 miles per gallon, so the tax costs you 1 cent per mile driven. According to the gov't, the average American drives 12 - 15,000 miles per year. McCain's proposal would remove the tax from Memorial Day to Labor Day (105 days). At 15,000 miles per year, that should be about 4,315 miles driven without tax - a savings of about $43.15.<br /><br />Wow, that should stimulate the economy!<br /><br />Oh, by the way... the Federal government would LOSE $10 Billion from the proposal, money that is used to maintain our roads and highways! Sorry, I'll forgo my $43 now so I don't pay way more in the future to fix the crumbling roads.<br /><br />Just my opinion.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/565481723991831665-8140074405252925573?l=denver-homesonline.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>The Kearns Teamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04025789037229560667noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-565481723991831665.post-7598790908441535712008-04-15T20:33:00.000-06:002008-04-16T17:21:19.550-06:00Hello everyone, or anyone who happens to be reading along! I just wanted to take a minute to introduce myself. My name is Michael Kearns, and I'm a REALTOR in Denver, CO. As we launch our new website (<a href="http://www.denver-homesonline.com/">http://www.denver-homesonline.com/</a>) it's also time to launch my blog! I'm hoping to post my ramblings a few times a week, sometimes on real estate topics, sometimes on whatever else strikes me as interesting. Hopefully you'll read along and share your thoughts with me as well.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/565481723991831665-759879090844153571?l=denver-homesonline.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>The Kearns Teamhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04025789037229560667noreply@blogger.com0
