Furthermore, think about this. The price per gallon of gas is the cost of the gas to the station, PLUS the stations markup (which is about 12 to 15 cents or somewhere about that range), PLUS the states tax which can be anywhere in the 30 to 60 cent range or more. So, if the state taxes are in the multiple of cents range where does this 9/10 tax even matter anymore?
It generates about half a billion dollars a year or more so I would say yes, it matters.
And in my view blind siding the public regarding that extra chunk of income.
To use a ¢ symbol hold one of the ALT keys down and enter 0162. The ALT key must be depressed while entering 0162. I remember this from the olden days of computer programming. This is for a Windows based PC. It's different on a Mac and perhaps Linux.where did that cents symbol come from ? People under 40 likely aren't familiar with it . I recall 19.9 cents as a kid in an Opel station wagon. Dial you own octane at Sunoco stations. It was 49.9 when I started driving . White castle burger's were 10 cents or 10 for a dollar. Grocery store, chicken was .19 cents per pound, dozen eggs could be had for .39 -.49 cents. My first boa constrictor was 10 dollars. If I had a magic wand the population would be licking stamps and on a party line.
Does not work on Linux.
Linux might have another way of using the ASCII key codes. I remember all of these:
I’m on an iPad which doesn’t have a cent symbol. Could use the dollar sign and a decimal number I suppose but just about as many key strokes.
Press and hold on the dollar sign, then drag your finger to the cent symbol.I’m on an iPad which doesn’t have a cent symbol. Could use the dollar sign and a decimal number I suppose but just about as many key strokes.
