		<description>It is time for California to live within its means. Eliminate the revenue vacuum created under the Davis administration and reduce government size.  I am an advocate of social service cuts and government downsizing not new tax.</description>

		<description>Maybe he should be taxed since he drives a Hummer....what an idiotic statement. Look...maybe we should sue Mother Nature since she pollutes more than 60-percent of the air.</description>

		<description>Increasing the price of gas will not reduce demand, it will only affect quantitative demand.  We need something else to actually move the demand-curve, we need strong incentives to buy fuel-efficient vehicles (say a tax-defferement for very fuel efficient cars and a stronger guzzler tax for the lesser ones).</description>

		<description>Heh - well, gas taxes sure seem to work in European countries (Germany, for example). It hardly helps the gas companies -- in fact, it hurts them, as people buy cars with better gas milages. That, I think, would explain why conservatives are (generally) opposed to this one. Gas taxes encourage people to buy cars with better gas milages, in turn encouraging car compainies to come up with cars with better gas milages, and so on. Ironically, the only people hurt are the gas companies.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t think its local, I think its a state tax allegedly geared at researching alternative fuels.  They can collect millions of dollars, and pay a political contributor piles of cash to produce a report saying people should try running their cars on switchgrass or wood chips.  Sound familiar?</description>
