That's how you end up with the typical case of a medical doctor who calls on government price controls of gasoline because gasoline "costs too much," and a gas station owner who calls for nationalized health care because his medical insurance "costs too much."

Or the citizen who calls for a reduction in taxes and an ease in the production of gasoline additives because gas "costs too much".

I hate to break this to you, but reducing fuel taxes won't do a damn thing to reduce the price of gasoline.

If you are willing to pay $3 for a gallon of gasoline today, then you are going to be willing to pay the same $3 even after the taxes have been eliminated.
