Now that AGW is settled science, oh wait, it isn't settled science, it is unsettled because it appears that the fix was in years ago just to make some serious cash. And someone saw the power that could be grabbed with the dubious at best science of AGW for an already failed political system of government control. Of everything.
Since they can't get you to stop buying vehicles you want they'll blackmail you through your gas tank. It's an ugly job destroying the fossil fuel industry, but somebody has to do it if the new energy industry is to succeed. And since the new industry can't win in the market place they have to have an ally that can force the issue. Enter closed door meetings between the 'green' acolytes and government bureaucrats. Quid pro quo.
Fuel Taxes Must Rise, Harvard Researchers Say
To meet the Obama administration’s targets for cutting greenhouse gas emissions, some researchers say, Americans may have to experience a sobering reality: gas at $7 a gallon.
This administration reminds me of the bungling crooks that for years plan meticulously and then blow it with arrogance. A little more patience and a few $100 mil more in cash could've sealed the deal with bought and paid for scientists, but with the White House and both the House and the Senate and a well paid bloated bureaucracy in their pockets, they jumped the gun. They never counted on scared politicians, the Internet and scientists that wouldn't toe the line.
And these morons think people are going to pay $7 per gallon for a theory that becomes more laughable by the day? Especially when WalMart is having a sale? On snow tires.
Power to the people and all that.
