Why?
Because it’s ONLY 18.4 cents per gallon (diesel 24.4 cents).
If that is eliminated, it isn’t going to make an iota of difference to the average gasoline purchaser when prices are approaching $5 per gallon, yet it’s going to hasten the bankruptcy of the Highway Trust Fund and will cause more harm than good.
Did you know that during a three-month suspension, the average driver would save only about $28?
Did you also know the soaring oil prices lifted Chevron Corp.’s annual profit to $18.7 billion in 2007?
Exxon Mobil reported on Friday that its 2007 profit hit $40.6 billion.
Would you agree the priority some candidates have of how to address the rising cost of our gasoline is being addressed in the wrong direction?

Yes, electricity is energy. But it is a renewable source. We can get it from solar power. Oil, on the other hand, is a non-renewable source (we’re running out) and is polluting the environment which we share with other animals. They have just as much a right to be here as we do.
