Does anybody know name of big silver caravan awning mainly seen on hobby caravans?
If we were to add a 25 cent per gallon tax to the price of gasoline, and increase it by 25 cents each year until the price hit $6.00, people would buy smaller cars; we would contribute less to global warming; we would reduce our dependence on foreign oil; our government would have money to pay for the Iraq war (which many people think had something to do with oil); and there would renewed interest in using and improving public transportation. On the other, hand there would be a lot of complaining about pain at the pump. What do you think? - Are there more pro or con reasons for increasing the price of gasoline?
