Bankrupt the Mullahs!

A lot of people complained Prez Bush didn't ask us to "sacrifice" anything after 9/11. Well, in the absence of Bush making the request, I will: drive less! Keep the demand for oil and gas low.

With oil falling WAAAY back down and gas prices slumping accordingly, it is tempting to go back to the same old ways of filling up SUVs and driving around everywhere. With oil prices low, it hurts the oil producing economies - it keeps money flowing into Iran, Saudi Arabian, Venezuela, Nigeria, and Russia. Less money, less ability to support destabilizing groups, less ability to resist internal change, etc.


Oh yeah, it's also good for the environment.

It'll be easy to fall back into old bad habits. What about a gas tax? Have the polluters and terrorist financiers pay for the auto industry bailout...
