Thanksgiving: Energy Prices Reach an All-Time High---Mike Beebe's Solution? Raise Taxes on Fuel Production---Thanks a Lot

I've been talking about this for quite some time.

Mike Beebe has an obsession with raising the severance tax on natural gas. Why? Well, no particular reason. Are we experiencing a budget shortfall? No.

Are we already experiencing high energy costs? Yes.

Economists are predicting that home heating prices will be higher than ever this winter. Gasoline prices are over $3/gallon.

What does Gov. Mike Beebe want to do to help? Raise the cost of fuel!!!

Thanks, Gov. You have a Happy Thanksgiving, too.
