[QUOTE="brett636, post: 583719, member: 249"] While you have good intentions for your ideas, you contradict yourself when you speak of government sin taxes on gasoline then claim you wish for the free market to decide what vehicles we purchase. Gasoline will get more expensive over time. Last summer I was ready to buy an electric car just so I didn't have to spend all my money on $4/gal. gas. Its not the government's place to tax fuel to high levels, its the free market's place to determine a fair value for that fuel. When that fair value becomes too much for the average consumer to stomach they will buy higher mileage or alternative fuel vehicles. As oil and gasoline become more expensive new industry's involved in alternative fuels will take center stage as the world's premier transportation energy source. It just takes patience is all.
