Not to mention that it costs NOTHING to tax gas, but the oil companies have to find the oil, drill for the oil, refine the oil, and finally distribute the oil. So they have lots of expenses involved compared to uncle sam just sitting back and taking it all in.
Not to mention that provincial/state jurisdictions also slap on royalties for the oil companies to pump it out of the ground.....another excuse for high prices.
