Ever since the Bush tax cuts of 2003 Democrats have had a bone in their throat called “tax cuts for the rich”. They have croaked about this for the past 9 years. So, why didn’t the congress end these tax cuts for the rich in 2009/2010 when they had absolute majorities thereby separating these cuts from cuts for every one else? They could have ended these cuts with a one sentence bill! The Democrats wanted to keep “tax cuts for the rich” as a class warfare issue. They really want all of the Bush tax cuts to expire so they can blame Republicans for not giving in on “tax cuts for the rich”.
I agree. At a 50:1 price differential, it seems like a quick payoff in increasing the NG distribution infrastructure. It is likely that a case could be made at 6:1. From stats I’ve seen, between 8 and 9 million homes use over 5 billion gallons of fuel oil per year. About 80% of the homes using fuel oil are in the northeast which is a small area when compared to the entire US. This would free up a lot of fuel for transport.
” Since the early 1980s the price of hospital care and higher education has risen fivefold relative to the price of cars and clothing, and more than a hundredfold relative to the price of televisions.”
And why the five fold increase? I’m sure glad the government is NOT producing TVs.
