What we need to do is increase the Federal excise tax on gasoline to $1.00
per gallon or more, this will force gaz guzzling Americans to conserve,
promote alternative energy, decrease profit to the oil companies & market
speculators, fund new technology, and help pay some debt (like from our wars
in the middle east-over oil).

Giving the govt more money is the LAST thing we want. Either it will
waste the $$$ on pork, or will start new wars, or will fund new
bureaucracies to harrass the people.

Instead, REMOVE all taxes from alcohol and people will start using it
and other stuff to replace oil.
