Current contribution is shown below. Increased AVGAS tax rates or user

GA is also the only user that pays income tax."

What the ????? There is no income tax on general aviation. Maybe
you
mean the personal income tax, which everyone pays?



Yes that is what I meant. The airlines pay no income taxes. They report
a tax liability under GAAP accounting but there is an adjustment in the
cash flow statement. I am all for user fees if it applies equally to
everyone for everything since my total tax bill would decline by a huge
percentage.
