KayKay:  H3ll NO!! Aren't we paying enough NOW??? WHY would you want an additional tax?? You must be made of money because the rest of us are suffering at the high price of crude now! Get your head out of your neither regions and see what is going on!

Bob F:  Sounds like a good idea to me. How else are we going to be convinced that we don't need 4000 pound SUVs so that one person can drive alone to work every day in it, getting 8 miles to the gallon, when he could just as well be driving a lightweight compact hybrid getting 40 miles to the gallon? How else are we going to make alternative fuels (ethanol, methane, hyrdrogen, etc.) more attractive? Plus the added tax revenue can be used by power hungry bureaucrats to screw up the country even more than they have so far.
