They could also invest in alternative energy sources that are cleaner like wind, solar, and even nuclear but that’ll get in the way of precious gas and coal profits. As it pertains to cars, maybe encourage more electric vehicle purchases but that wouldn’t work since it would have to be the former DOGE head’s company and not other established names. Regardless, this dude is a schmuck who’ll always side with big oil over the common man and is simply doing lip service here

Republicans always get a blank check to run up the national debt. I’m all for help at the pump, but we’re going to be paying for the difference with interest on this plan. I always find it crazy republicans can drive up debt without public backlash.

$0.18/gallon ain’t gonna do a whole lot to help out the average folks when almost everywhere is already up $2.00-$3.00/gallon before summer even hits.

It can be pretty revenue neutral if it can be implemented with some sort of a windfall tax on the record profits for oil companies right now

The gas tax that have been raised in decades and was supposed to be used to maintain car infrastructure. Yeah this will end well for our aging infrastructure
