Gas Tax Suspension

Hillary Clinton and John McCain want to suspend gas taxes for the summer. Barrack Obama is against this notion. I have to agree with Obama...suspending gas taxes for the summer is a complete gimmick that will do nothing towards leading us on a path to cosume less fossil fuels. And, as Obama points out, eliminating these taxes will take away money needed for our roads and highways.

Finally, taking away gas taxes will only encourage people to drive MORE. We need to increase conservation and put our efforts into other sources of energy, and increase the production of hybrid-type vehicles.
