The sad truth is;

1. CAFE standards endanger human lives.
2. CAFE standards fail to reduce consumption.
3. CAFE standards do not improve the environment.

They do make the far left and those ignorant of history feel better though.

Look for gas taxes to be raised significantly, emulating the Brits and Italian levels. That's what the hard left really wants to do, but are too politically concerned about the backlash to do it now.

Jimmy Carter on Steroids, emulating all the same failed ideals and failed ideological policy prescriptions. All we need is another large scale Iranian hostage event and a Sinfuel tax on oil company profits.

Better still, Jimmy Carter on Steroids means Obama and the hard left will attempt to nationalize the oil companies.

Those who voted for Obama are really going to regret the decision. I blame the wishy-washy undecided who want the government to take care of everything.

Socialist utopia indeed! The statists are in full control.

You have to laugh at the irony of the rest of America following California off the financial cliff, Arnold (Mr. HUMMER) leading the CAFE charge, and Obama (never worked in the private sector) running so many large companies.
