I'll say this again since no one read it. In the last few years the "gas companies" and "big oil" spent more money on alternative fuels for cars, alternative energy for the grid, and alternative infrastructures that would allow alternative fuels than the US government did on any of those projects.

Not only that. They did it on less money per gallon than congress got.

I'll ask it clear and simple.

Do you want the people who completely wasted 30 cents a gallon to have more money or would you rather the people who very responsibly used their 4 cents per gallon to have more money.

IQ test.

Frank I think he means regressive in the sense that its a heavier burden on low income individuals rather than on high(progressive taxes heavily burden the rich, regressive is the opposite(the opposite of income tax structure)).

But Frank I totally agree with you otherwise lol. The projects around here are loaded down with massive cadillacs and 4x4s when I know for a fact there are cheaper Hondas and Toyotas out there.
