That's a great point, it takes a ton of energy to produce a gallon of gasoline... so should we find a better way to make gasoline or should we stop using so much of it because it's so hard to make?

Also, energy is energy, so using solar to make gasoline is kind of a dumb idea as well because you will be producing so much waste/heat that it might as well be a heater that has a byproduct of gasoline.
