Surely it would be smarter to raise gasoline taxes in the USA and drop taxes on home heating oil, at least for this winter

The only way this would make sense, is if it were a part of a larger change to normalize energy taxes based on carbon content.

I don't see any reason to subsidize those businesses and individuals who choose to rely on such a polution rich method of heating. For those below the poverty line, existing government programs provide direct aid.
