2. Steve, details please: IIRC, state taxes are "per gallon"; not affected by total price.

Range from about 33¢ to 68¢ per gallon., including federal ~18¢/gallon. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_taxes_in_the_United_States

Nebraska is 26.4¢ plus 18.4¢ = 44.8¢/gallon.

Taxes are per gallon, not affected by total price.

If anything, lower prices = more sales = more revenue for infrastructure.
