Proposal would up S.C. gas, utility, and service taxes (updated)

Update September 3: The Post and Courier has expanded their reporting to better flush out what, why, and what it would take to make the tax changes a reality; take a read here.
First reporting September 2: The idea is to create a broader tax base for South Carolina and also up the gas tax to help our ailing roads.
Suspect this one will go through as smooth as a cold knife through a rock.
