The gas tax increase is just another tax hike that didn't live up to promises. Measures 66 & 67 were said (by some) to be the 'fix' to Oregon's 'revenue shortage'. How did that work out ? Well, other than consumers paying more for most purchases (tax on gross sales passed on), it didn't!
An effective litmus test is thus -- anytime taxes are raised, in most cases, those that are promoting the change are usually in line to benefit.
