So, during the election Obama said something to the effect of he wish gas prices hadn't of risen so quickly. He had no problem with gas prices going up he just wish it had been more gradual. And why not, Democrats, despite it snowing in Vegas, believe in this global warming crap and want gas to be high. They don't care about the Americans who are having a hard time to pay for it.
Anyway, so, here we go again.
In a sign of one major internal difference, Mr. Chu has called forgradually ramping up gasoline taxes over 15 years to coax consumers into buying more-efficient cars and living in neighborhoods closer to work.
"[SIZE=4]Somehow we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe,[/SIZE]" Mr. Chu, who directs the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California, said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal in September.
Obama's response? Not "right now." Ha, let's wait a little while.
Obama, fighting for the American people. What a joke. He might actually end up being worse than Carter.
No wait......he's already passed Carter!!
He wants to force Americans into buying those clown cars.
Citizenkane - no matter what kind of cars people like you purchase they will all be clown cars.
If gasoline prices have to be raised to encourage denser populations (debatable in any case) I would prefer the money went to the government, where I get some benefit, and not to the oil cartels.

Comparing Carter to Hugo Obama isn't fair. Carter is just plain stupid, whereas Obama is EVIL...
As far as GregW's statement, as ignorant of facts as always....
You wonder how some people suvive life's daily turmoils, to ignorant to breathe...

Mr Chu needs to go paint some rooftops white and look for a new job in 2.5.
Someone should start a website devoted to tracking kooky comments and abhorrent viewpoints that spew forth (seemingly on a daily basis) from this administrations policy makers.
China closed their wallet to us. We need revenue..which bankrupt country will loan us money ?
Only alternative is tax.
There is another alternative. Enforced savings. If we have a savings rate high enough to buy our own national debt then we wont need hand outs from other counties.
