Are They Nuts!? IMF Proposes $1.40 a Gallon Gas Tax on US Drivers

The national average for a gallon of gasoline is currently at $3.65. On top of that sky-high price, the International Monetary Fund has now proposed that the U.S. should impose a tax of $1.40 per gallon in order to pay for social programs around the world and help the environment.

Neil Cavuto discussed this proposal with FBN's Charles Payne, who said sometimes you hear things and you just have to ask, "Are you nuts!?"

Comment by gary lineberger on April 1, 2013 at 9:39am: heres the best idea yet charge the 12 central banks under rico laws all their board members all the ceos cfos, that way everything they have which is and was fraudulently obtained can be confiscated pretrial. they will qualify for a public defender then and can have their day in court. meanwhile all they have stolen should pay the debt they say we owe them

Comment by arisuta2 on April 1, 2013 at 10:51am: The real joke of the entire situation is that we could all be driving environmentally friendly cars that run off f*ck all except what would the oil companies do with all those billions of gallons of petrol they would still have to produce to get at the other useful oils contained in the crude stuff? We need the heavier oils to make plastics, tar and lubricants but the lighter fuel would be, (and is) a waste product that they would have to get rid of some other way. They should be paying us for the waste disposal work we do for them every time we drive their dirty, polluting, pieces-of-shit cars.

Comment by Tim Kelly on April 1, 2013 at 11:31am: With the rise, US price for a gallon would be £3.33 GBP, in the UK, we are currently paying £6.44!!! That and home energy prices are crippling the poorest as private energy suppliers make millions in profit, food is rising pretty much weekly, living will soon be the preserve of the rich if it continues, we already have spreading malnutrition where folk must choose between heating or eating... We are in the midst of cull tactics now and things seem to have become intense coinciding with the arrival of Jesuit Pope Francis... alleged baby dealer... Curiously Xi Xinping was inaugurated the next day in direct opposition to the energies of the Pope, Xi is a Light warrior... What with Cyprus having money directly stolen from bank accounts, which I find an attempt to create bank runs in the wider world, leaving only the most Criminal element, The Central Banks as monopolisers of money creation. The World biggest crime and the reason everything else is possible in this time...§

Comment by Wolf on April 1, 2013 at 3:46pm: I say fine. Get rid of Wal-mart bring back ma and pa stores or simply grow your own.

We have a horse...they eat grass. Sure you can only do about 8 miles a day but if you have local businesses then you could ride your bike or horse into town easy.

I would like for city people to understand that most of this country is country. I have to go 20 miles to shop - I go maybe once a week into town. It would take me maybe 2.5 days to ride a horse into town for supplies. But, if my little town was once again thriving with local commerce I could ride my bike.

I think it would be a great idea for communities to petition getting rid of wal-mart which is sucking the life blood out of many communities that would bring back local businesses. Watch people thrive...and thrive they will.

Looking for something to learn about today? Look up Phoenix Program. This was created by Olie North and FEMA to systematically destroy the civilian base of resistance. They established death camps, torture chambers, etc. The program is now named HOME LAND SECURITY.

I think we need to temporarily establish a democracy - majority rule - we are the majority so what we rule is what we follow.

Long live our constitution - it is the very foundation the concrete of our nation and our sheriffs. Back your sheriff...
