This from a “conservative”? I don’t think so… it sounds more like a scarcity mentality to me. We live in a big country, and we enjoy freedom to travel, and drive around safely (and comfortably) in big cars. I’m so sick of getting these messages about how to save gas by putting air in my tires… it reminds me of the years with Jimmy Carter’s war on energy. So, we’re supposed to put our kids in the crossfire by living in the innercity to save gas are we? I got a better idea, let’s get the freakin’ libs to allow drilling for domestic oil and building of refineries and nuclear energy plants. If not, then let the price of gas go up until the profit motive inspires an entrepreneur to build an alternative fuel of mode of transportation that people want and will pay for (I see there’s a car company in India developing a car that runs on air as we speak). I don’t think we need to go back to the horse and buggy just yet.
