Paper estimates that gas taxes are paid 60-80% by consumers. Data, however, are from before days where refineries were 'at capacity", although because of imports that seems irrelevant.

In theory it doesn't matter economically, but I think it might matter in reality. I guess they could slowly raise the price? I don't really understand what is causing the high prices right now -- what RT said implies it's underlying oil prices.
