From Steve's links it looks like about $200 Billion per year just for gasoline. So we tax inefficient "energy clients" and we subsidize efficient "energy clients". That's a net zero cost to the economy.

Immediately we have a significant lowering of the $200 Billion. Two factors: 1) lower consumption; 2) lower prices in the commodity markets.

Now we can use the annual savings of a percentage of the $200 Billion as seed money for more efficient use of energy... the cascade effect. The more we invest, the more we save.

It's a "no brainer".
