In WI, they made the utility companies part of their unofficial Tax Arm. How? By collecting extra money for the poor who cannot afford heat. After all, you don't want to leave Grandma and Grandpa in the cold, do you? That money was used to fund the DA's office instead.

Anyone remember what happened to your state's Tobacco Windfall money?

A report I read says that 40 cents on the dollar collected for fuel tax is being spent on road improvement. So where does the other $60 cents go? Lets say they are wrong and 50 cents goes to road improvement, what about the balance?

I don't mind paying more taxes but lets see what we are getting instead of a huge shell game and in the end, nobody knows what it is getting. That is why I always say that we cannot afford any more govt "help". Thanx but no thanx.
