My theory is if the Govt. controlled gasoline prices (not heating oil) at say $2.00 $2.10 and $2.20 a gallon the Govt could pocket the excess using it for budgetary problems. Stabilizing the fuel price, decreasing emissions. If gas cost goes over $2 then the Govt eats the cost.

I'm used to $2.00/G gas as I live in Cali. I dont see this hurting anyone, the few dollars extra a tank will cost is easily affordable!

I know its not a well thought out system and I'm sure theres lots of pitfalls but I'm in favor of higher costs.

I've had co-workers who had to spend 5 months in San Diego on a job tell me their 3 bedroom, basic apartment was $2700/ month.
A $40K-50K job here in Maine would be $80K-100K in CA. It's all relative, I suppose.
