re: However $11.70 per gallon for gasoline (assuming the underlying pre-tax price doesn't change) would be an increase in the gas tax of about $8.70 per gallon, which is too much.

Nobody proposed that. That was just a number that someone in the article felt represented the actual cost of a gallon of gas to society.

What do you think a gallon would cost if we stripped away all the tax subsidies to oil companies?
