Not only that, but the various levels and intricacies of taxes on fuel represent a LOT more than this smoke the weasels are blowing. A true elimination of all taxes on fuel would be a huge step (if the suppliers were prevented from abusing it), but THAT will never happen, as the government is way too dependent on it at all levels - Hillary of course knows this.
