Scuds, I dont understand how I have an extreme view. I don't advocate an elitest society where the very few have very much. But, thats the way it turned out. I am by no means rich and gas prices affect , but how can you tell someone whose companies sole purpose is to make money, to not make money. IF they cut the tax breaks, gas won't go lower, in fact it will probably go higher to maintain current profit levels. There are so many other battles to fight this is not even worth it. You want massive tax breaks, check into defense contractors. 30 billion is a drop in the bucket compared to what we have blown on defense projects that have never gotten off the drawing board. Scuds, I'm all about helping poor people but going after fuel companies just isen't the way to do it. For poor people not to be poor, they need to make more money. To make more money they need to be better educated. I applaud your efforts becuase you are passionate about your views, but instead of aritifically raising the poor to the middle class, lets educate them so they can achieve that on their own. I've always been a big fan of "You don't respect anything that you didn't have to work for"
