Isn't that a combined total making 31 gallons of fuel total per barrel? If the entire $10 is charged solely to fuel that would be about 33 cents per gallon increase in both gas and diesel if evenly applied across the board.

Thankfully I don't believe we have 1000's of Obama voters but we do have them and many will foolishly vote for Hillary or Bernie. And yes, even one is too many.
