Apparently Gov Corbett's legacy has started. He all but gave away the fracking gas for free. Receiving massive campaign contributions from that industry. He massively cut spending to schools and transportation. And now has done what is expected. Gasoline taxes must increase by a total of $0.28 per gallon. He did so in a manner that all but the most informed would not notice. And intentionally delayed tax increases for half a year so that increases occur after elections.

Tonight Exxon in New Jersey is $2.199 per gallon. Exxon in Pennsylvania has increased this week to $2.689 per gallon. The entire 28 cent increase has not yet been imposed. So future PA prices will increase.
