3. Except it is unlikely we would save any money.
If it is enacted it would encourage more driving which would increase demand which would raise prices. If the gas companies are hit with a windfall profits tax, they would raise prices in order to pay it. This is the worst policy idea of the entire campaign season.

4. I'm going to use mine to buy some concrete and go patch the highway myself
