I agree with that, but I wish our prices were higher, and the extra tax money going to other government functions. Pain at the pump is the ONLY way to get most people to change their gasoline fuelishness. Mandating higher MPG out of manufacturers is also a good thing, but does not account for all the old cars (like my old MB 560SL!) still on the road. If gas cost $6 a gallon, I'd surely sell it, but at $3, I'll drive it once in a while.
This would be akin to the best foreign policy we've ever had.
