Back to the question...

Just look at the solutions that are being offered in politics to see how democrats/liberals react.

Obama. What solution? "Don't drive. Don't do anything that will help people for at least 10 years."

Some democrats are even proposing to RAISE the federal gas tax!

Why? Why would they do such a thing? I mean, other than control?

Take a group of people who are hurting...tax them. Then when they are all suffering so bad, you can turn around and use those taxes for social programs.

Invent new taxes...such as a "carbon tax". Every person only allotted a specified amount of carbon units. You go over, you pay a tax.

More government control.

And why? It was the government that got people into the mess in the first place.

Cat in the hat politics. Thank a democrat.
