Right up any government's alley. More justification for fleecing the citizens "for their own good".

The consumer loses, the government and the oil producers win.

I'm all for reducing oil consumption as long as it doesn't require us to have a reduction in lifestyle. If you raise the price of gas too much then I lose the freedom to live/work where I choose. Hell, let's just go all the way and let the government just tell me where to work, what to drive, what to say, and give me my allotted pay at the end of the week. That way they can just tell me I need $5 for gas + $20 for food and keep the rest. Ohh, and your BMI is too high Mr. Smith, we're reducing your food money to $15 because you obviously don't need more food.

Hate to break it to you folks who think that the environment is far more important than people. Sorry, but this is just a way for some people to get more rich off the backs of the people who do the actual work.

I think it's a crying shame that in order to be "GREEN" you must hurt the common man. Not make things more efficient. Not give people alternatives methods to get the same work done with less pollution... Just sit on the little guy until he's so dry that he gives up and becomes another chump sucking on mama welfare's teet.

Because individual people are relatively intelligent. Collectively people are extremely stupid. History has shown us this, and its not likely to stop anytime soon.

yep... the collective is easier to control. Sad thing is democracy looks more and more like dictatorship.

The U.S. is a Republic just FYI. Democracy is pretty much Anarchy. True Democracy or Anarchy are disasters waiting to happen.

The words democracy and republic have very broad meanings. The United States can fit into both categories.
