Too funny! I'd contribute to your collection.
ALL the country's problems don't get fixed in the Dem years, and now are undone and made worse in the Rep years. That's just TOO SIMPLE an explanation. Despite the rhetoric, I think (hope) most people realize that.
Back to topic.
I think that WHEN gas goes sky-high (not IF), that we'll finally see some sincere movement on reducing our usage - pushed by the government, and by the consumers' changing of preference. This will drive the auto manufacturers to WANT TO build more fuel-efficient vehicles, BOOST research for alternatives to gasoline and diesel. This will ALLOW them to charge more for their fuel-efficient vehicles, as they'll be in much higher demand.
I, also, believe that gas prices have JUST NOW caught up with inflation over the years. We won't see SIGNIFICANT change in our thoughts (in the US) about reducing gas usage until the price climbs another buck or two.
