"You will never be the best version of yourself if you allow other people to convince you, you can't be better because of your skin color, because of your sexual identity, because of the community you came from... you must resist those narratives at all costs if you truly want to be successful in America." - Charley Kirk

So, here's a quick look at gas prices in Tucson, AZ.
My nephew and his family were here last week, visiting from Florida. They too couldn't believe how much we pay for gas up here with Florida actually being slightly lower than what you showed for Tuscon.
Then again, break it down and see how much taxes we pay on a gallon of gas.
And, they still wish to see us paying tolls and even more taxes.
Well, I don't know that I can hold out Tucson as a great example. They have a 9.1% sales tax in addition to an income tax I believe.
But taxes don't always have the desired by government outcome... like the $10 million per month Washington State loses as a result of jacking up our cigarette tax.
