We need a hike in gas tax. It should be a 5-year thing, that hikes gas taxes about $5 a gallon over 5 years. Why? Because then gas will be so over priced that anybody could afford to make his own, cheaper. Those who would rather buy at the pumps will pay Government what Government wants. Those who make their own will gradually make us fuel sufficient in America. Finally, when we start supplying our neighborhoods, privately, Big Oil along with Government gas taxes will go down the tubes.
