Taxing Big Oil

Wisconsin Gov. Proposes Taxing Big Oil, this article in Wired News by Scott Bauer covers a proposal by Wisconsin to

[tax] big oil companies more than $270 million over the next two years to help pay for the state's transportation needs.
Apparently a similar proposal was submitted and defeated in California. What are your thoughts on this?
