North Carolina Senators Propose $200 Gasoline Rebate to Ease Inflation Woes

Defying the laws of economics, a group of lawmakers from North Carolina are proposing to fight energy inflation by… handing out more cash to consumers?

Yes, you read that right: as reported by Wral.com, senators from North Carolina are looking to hand out one-time $200 payments to all adult drivers in the state to help ease the financial burden of surging gasoline prices. If passed, the Gas Tax Rebate Act of 2022 would allocate $1.3 billion from the state’s $4.241 billion in additional revenue, with drivers receiving the cash incentive sometime in October.

To qualify for the rebate, consumers must have a valid drivers license from the state of North Carolina, and must be at least 18 years of age. The national average price of gasoline in the US hit over $4.98 per gallon this week, compared to about $3 per gallon during the same time last year.
