58. Fuel taxes account

for 4-5% of total tax revenues in Germany and France. Agreed it is not a HUGE amount, BUT, if petrol taxes are reduced, revenues will HAVE to be increased elsewhere, or services cut.

BTW, in one of your earlier posts you said that 25% of French petrol taxes went into general revenue, but in this one you said that none of it goes into the "general kettle"....which is it?
