It would be interesting to see a graph that shows the increases and/or decreases in Florida fuel taxes over the past decade. I paid $3.59 a gal in Gautier, MS last week.

Our southern border is wide open to all who want to enter. Crime is out of control all over the country like it has never been. The education system leaves doubt in our parents mind. Inflation is causing the cost of living to surge upward so much that everyday American families are struggling just to live day to day. There can be a new direction started in November and finished in 2024. The current administration in DC is doing great harm to our great country.

Look for MORE pain in your pocket book when you go to buy food or other items. This is NOT the fault of Russia, the fault is who currently occupies the White House.
