Simon, I read this news in my local paper last night and I just about upchucked my tater tots.
When Senators suggest passing out $100 rebate checks from the treasury, you know there must be an election right around the corner. When I found out GOP Senators were behind this, I decided it really doesn't make a difference how the midterm elections go; there is really no difference between the current GOPs and Dems. None.
This is windfall vote pandering of the highest magnitude.
PeeWee, I think you do not realize the advantages the GOP plan is. By the lowering of taxes for the Dems this will only encourage consumption of gasoline. The GOP plan is a really cleaver way to cut consumption of gasoline while not hurting consumers. Those that reduce their consumption of gasoline get to pocket the rebate.
