That is mis-leading. Alaska and shale oil and oil sands would only be viable if the price of crude oil were high enough, not the price of gasoline.
Let's stop trying to mess with things through taxes. $3.00 gas is still cheap. If you can afford $40,000 for an SUV, and you finance it, you're probably paying $1200-1500 per month to own and maintain it. Do you really think an extra $100 in gas will make a difference? :rolleyes:
If the NYtimes thinks that the European model is so great, why don't we donate NYC to Europe. They can have Coastal California too. No no, we'll be fine. Really.
