A brutal accounting of the mechanisms used by the State of Nevada to expropriate the wealth of its citizens. ¡Afuera!
FUEL REVENUE INDEXING // NRS 373 / FTI | AUTOMATIC INFLATION
One of the greatest con jobs pulled on Nevada drivers. The Regional Transportation Commission (RTC) tied the gas tax to the Producer Price Index, creating an automatic, perpetual tax increase that inflates the cost of fuel without requiring politicians to vote on a hike. By FY2021, over $181M was extracted for the RTC alone.
