But, but, but...if the feds increase the gasoline tax (rather than each state) Native American tribes won't benefit. Tribes are exempt from paying state fuel taxes to the states; they get to charge it and keep it. Tribes have to pay all federal taxes to the federal government. That is a ton of money for tribes that have busy Convenience Stores. That must mean that anyone who supports a federal gasoline tax, hates Indians!!!!!![]()
Or that they didn't know that provision of law

I would in fact support higher taxes in many states as well, such as my home state of Ohio. But the chance of any similarly significant change across the states seems pretty low.
