So those without the means to buy gasoline to fuel their cheap, older, but consumptive vehicles will become completely insolvent, rather than just partially so? So your Yugo will be vindicated? Max |

So those who can afford to pay it will be forced to pay it. There should be exemptions for the poor and for those who drive for a living. I, you, and most of the people on this ng can afford to pay $5/gallon. I know, it's a bummer. :-) -- Capt. JG @@ www.sailnow.com |

JG @@ www.sailnow.com So when you gas up to you force the attendent to keep the excess you voluntarily pay ($5.00/gallon) or do you send a check to the oil company at the end of the year? If enough people wanted it, gas stations could raise the price to $5.00/ gallon and save the government the trouble of legislating it. I can easily afford to pay $5.00 a gallon. The question is how many gallons can I afford to buy? There will never be excess taxes on gasoline. The government wants to maximize gas tax revenue, not minimize gas consumption. The same with cigarettes. There is way too much tax revenue to actually want to outlaw smoking. There cure all is to tax leisure time. Americans have too much of it. If people spent more time working they wouldn't have lifestyles of excess consumption. Of course income would have to be reduced accordingly, preferably through taxation. |

I, you, and most of the people on this ng can afford to pay $5/gallon. Of course. But many can't. How are you going to administer exemptions for the working poor? The cost of the gummint's exemption program would probably exceed the revenue taken in via the increased gasoline revenues. Or hadn't you noticed how incredibly inefficient our federal gummint is?

I find it amusing that you and the left wing are the first to condemn Bush for his role with big oil, but turn around and advocate $5 per gallon gasoline. Max |
