Everywhere in Virginia, car owners pay $1.10 tax on every 10 gallons of gasoline they buy! • Gasoline taxes across the nation amount to a 50% sales fax—and that's five times as high as the tax rate on luxuries like diamonds and mink coats! • Since World War II, there have been three increases in the Federal gasoline tax alone. This brought the Federal tax to 4 cents a gallon, in addition to the State tax of 7 cents a gallon! • In the last ten years gasoline taxes have skyrocketed 51% - yet the price of gasoline itself has risen only 5.57c during the same period! • Each year the average motor vehicle owner in this state pays $06 for gasoline taxes alone. That's actually more than the average week's pay for most people!
