Yelm was probably using the old math. This new Olympia math comes up with whatever figures suit their needs. It's the same $#!+, different day. They don't think we are smart enough to do their math, or remember anything.

RE: WA 9.5 Cent per Gallon Gas tax
I just feel bad for the folks from eastern wa who have to pay for the alaska way viaduct tunnel so that property values in downtown seattle can go up. I was kind of waiting for the whole Fing thing to come crashing down in the next earthquake so everyone could sue the state and bankrupt it so we could just start over.

I was in WA the other day and waited until I got back to Idaho to buy gas. I won't be buying gas there anymore.

If you are from WA, I'm sure you know that Olympia decided that having the 7th highest gas tax in the nation just wasn't good enough and decided to go for number 1 by passing a 9.5 cent per gallon gas tax - something we voted down in when we voted overwhelmingly NO on R51 in 2002, but they still jammed down a 5 cent per gallon tax increase in 2003 - w/out a vote of the people. Now they want another 9.5? That is 14.5 in two years! if you are sick of Olympia craming tax hikes that won't even pay to complete a single project KVI has decided to get a petition together to repeal the gas tax - they need seed money and volunteers to get the initiative on the ballot - Anything you can do - they need to raise $25,000 by Friday to get the ball rolling - if everyone who listens to KVI sent in $5.00 they would have enough to run the entire campaign... You can go to NO NEW GAS TAX
This is something John Carlson and Kirby Wilber are putting together - you can verify this at KVI's Website

Saw that on the news this morning. She's trying to do all she can just incase she gets the boot. I've never seen bills get through the houses so fast and on the Gov.'s desk for signing as I have this yr.
