Republicans idea.

Following is quote from the Boston Globe.

Healey faces the awkward political reality that the 13-member commission is chaired by a Republican and that another member, Boston lawyer Harold Hestnes, a longtime Republican civic leader, is the driving force behind the gas tax hike proposal, according to the two members

Dem or Repub i don't care who's at fault and pushing this idea forward. This state is over taxed to begin with, there is NO excuse for higher taxes, on anything!

When it comes to raising taxes, i don't care what political party is responsible, they need to be voted out of office. Raising taxes is never a good thing. It only hurts the hard working citizens of the state, who are already %$%$%$%$ing taxed enough.

I hope Mass residents stand up and let them know we will not tolerate higher taxes!!

I was just starting some %%%% with the Democrat commet. They've been talking about that for years. I use to work in Seekonk for many years, and thats where I always gassed-up my vehicles. Mass was always .07-.10 per gal cheaper than RI.

I think we as citizens should sue the state of mass for taxing us to much,
why don't we cut some of there jobs and give them pay cuts, hey they are supposed to be working for us. I am tired of getting all there mistakes and costs of them gets passed on to us. it is wrong
