Not paying your "fair share" are you?? ... I'm ridden with guilt... yours, not mine, that is..
If you buy biodiesel at any pump as blended fuel tax has been paid, and you will pay that tax.

"Save the Whales" has come to mean, protect those who shop at WalMart... or in Congress... "Frankly Scarlet... I don't give a damn" if taxes are paid or not.
