Big Government Keeps Gas Prices High In Wisconsin

Don't forget that WI state law adds 9% to gas prices now hitting $4.25/gal.

For real:

Wisconsin...authorities have stepped in to investigate after a month-long price war between local gas stations in Oconto County saw four stations offering prices as low as $3.39 a gallon this past week — nearly 50 cents less than other stations in the area, WBAY reports.

Wisconsin law says gas must be sold at a minimum 9% mark-up on the wholesale cost, to help protect smaller companies, reports Fox 11.

WI motorists also pay 32.9 cent per gallon state tax, the 4th highest in the nation - - and most of that tax goes to feed the road-building machine.

As driving declines.
