What are you going to do for the people who can’t afford $10 gas??

No wonder Congressional Approval is only 12%. They don’t get it either.

So you want Congress to subsidize the price of gasoline? What incentive would those who are investing in alterntive sources of energy have then?

We need to go through this short-term pain of high-priced gas so that other, sustainable forms of energy can be profitably developed. Subsidizing the price of gas would be a horrible short-term solution that would leave us all worse off in the long run.
