To the editor:
Gas prices are down and people are happy. Can't have this so the thinking is to raise the gas tax. Egads man! Are they nuts? Call your representatives and senators in Des Moines and tell them no.
What happens when/if gas prices return to high levels? Yep, the tax will stay right there. Right now the gas price is great and we are happy. Win-win!
Make our legislatures live within their means exactly like you and I do.
