Fuel Taxes Must Rise, Harvard Researchers Say
To meet the Obama administration’s targets for cutting greenhouse gas emissions, some researchers say, Americans may have to experience a sobering reality: gas at $7 a gallon.
To reduce carbon dioxide emissions in the transportation sector 14 percent from 2005 levels by 2020, the cost of driving must simply increase, according to a forthcoming report by researchers at Harvard’s Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs.

This was in the New York Times. The Obama administration doesn’t seem to understand that, though the thought of clean cars would be great, the cost is out of reach for the everyday American slug going to work and paying the family’s bills.
That really doesn’t matter to them. Come “hell or high water”, they want to impose the ramifications of their ideology upon the country. The do gooders without empathy, the philanthropists without conscience, the save the world enthusiasts without wisdom are in full view of all Americans.
But are we talking about the beloved Obama? He loves us and would never do anything to hurt us, the ill informed and foolish followers exclaim.
Oh yea? How much does the annointed one love the people? Don’t get in his way while he saves the planet. You paying $7.00 a gallon is way less important than he and his croneys getting their new Green Revolution. Forget about all the fudged data and out and out lies of the IPCC. Forgot about the data on the rising polar bear population a on increase in the solar ice cap for the last 20 years
