According to your figures, the $47B cost of this investment will be repaid in savings on the cost of gasoline in 210 days. That's a pretty fast payback to our economy. Over 5 years, that would bring in $410B in cost savings on that $47B initial investment. That's one hell of a return on investment.

It's always been a no brainer. We should have started in the 80's.
