re: I'd be for a gas tax under one provision: all the taxed money goes to RND for alternative energies, where 75% of it goes purely to startups and universities, not big oil companies. I would not be for gas tax if it goes to govt's deficit spending. I think the proceeds should go directly to subsidize the purchase of energy efficient vehicles, technology agnostic. We have solutions now, and we can make immediate progress towards more fleet efficiency. The incentives for purchasing efficiency will drive demand and work up-stream to the manufacturers. The only thing I don't like about funding R&D is that a lot ends up in pure research that never ends up being a pragmatic solution. John
