Default USA Overseas? Under perhaps in NO..

It would seem that the politicians from Oz go to the same taxation creativity programme as those from Canada. We too tax the tax on fuel. There is little incentive for our politicos to step in on our behalf as they are raking in millions that were destined to pay down our national deficit and pay for road upkeep. Note to file - the TransCanada essentially is still a goat track thru the woods from Arnprior to North Bay and beyond...

The deficit is gone, the roads are deplorable - not surprising as only 5% of gas tax revenue makes it back to the road...where do you suppose this money goes? Any theories out there in the West (of Canada)?
