Don't believe the enviromentalists when they say they're opposed by big business, big buisness loves the red tape that ties up new startups.

For illinois, you would save an additional $.16. So prices would drop about a dollar per gallon in illinois. If federal taxes were to be dropped, you would save about $.18 on the current dollar.

Though, I'm not quite sure if this will impact prices. I can't figure out if prices will remain the same because people are willing to pay that amount or if prices will be cut to sell more gasoline.

Why not require them to take off the taxes before we attack the oil companies? Face it if anyone is gouging it the government who do nothing but make law to collect your money then they blame the corporations !!! Think for a minute... Who is raising the taxes on cigarettes to gouge the remaining smokers? If smoking is really so bad why not make it illegal? Oh, thats right, there would be no taxes to snatch if they did the right thing.
