CAFE standards are being raised.
-- By model year 2025, the average American car or truck will get 54.5
miles a gallon (the average car currently gets 23.8 mpg).
-- We'll have saved 12 billion barrels of oil and eliminated 6 billion
metric tons of carbon dioxide pollution.
-- A family that purchases a new car in 2025 will save $8,200 in fuel
costs, compared with what they'd pay for gas for a similar vehicle
bought in 2010.
-- All told, American drivers will save nearly $2 trillion over the
life of the program.
CAFE is designed to shaft the consumer from cheap imports.
Call it corrupt politicians making sure you pay corrupt union rates for
autos. Which generally about 4 times what the rest of the world pays.
Yep, being screwed because your an American slave.

Seems like paying your bills with real money is no longer the accepted
behavior in USA. Perhaps that is the problem and not the the solution.
