In my area of NY, the gas price is $0.20+ higher than the national average. I remember when gas went from $.95 to $1.02 and I was upset then, now $4+ for the low grade gas and $4.50+ for diesel. Have a rip roaring discussion about that. There was an article that suggested to make a new usage tax that would add $0.50 to $1.50 more per gallon. He stated that if that was done we would conserve more and then the price would go back down below what the price was before the added tax. At that point the tax would be reduced. Then increased as demand goes up. Stupid, but proposed and people are listening.
