One of the recent Trump Economy Poll questions, I have seen, asked.

Do you see Gas being below $2 a gallon ever again?

The only real hurdle I see are state taxes.

eg. The Top 3 state taxers.
California at 68.1 cents per gallon (cpg),
Illinois (66.5 cpg)
and Pennsylvania (58.7 cpg).

All 3 just happen to be, die-hard, Liberal Democrat states.

#3 ...It's 28 cents/gal here in SC, and it was a good-sized jump when we got there - but it's got to be said that the politicians actually explained the how/why, and kept their word on keeping the money going to highway repair.

#4 30.9¢ fuel tax per gallon in Wisconsin, and is put in the state's transportation fund.

Dem lawmakers used to use this as a slush fund (until the R's gained control of the money), but now it's wholly dedicated to transportation programs.

Despite living on the GA side of the Savannah River, we still grab I-520 and head over to SC to buy things whenever feasible.

SC has Lower sales taxes and gas prices than GA. 28 vs 32 and Gas seems to run about 8 to 10+ cent a gallon less.

The wife roughly guesstimates we are saving around $200+ a year.

#6 Those slackers in MA are only stealing $027.37 cents per gallon.
