88. Y'all fell right in...
<<Isn't this what progressives want?>>

No, we don't want to spit on the poor and handicapped, thank you.


If I am not mistaken, it was Al Gore who was calling for a tax on gasoline a few years back, a prohibitive tax, much like that on cigarettes, that would help slow usage, and fix the global warming problem. Mr. Gores target number: $5.00 per gallon in his 1992 book, Earth in the Balance. Let us not forget that that would be in 1992 dollars...

Thanks for playing!
