| Message | The government does not limit anyone's freedom at all with the current law. If people want to drive SUVs all by themselves, they can. If they buy something that uses environmentally friendly fuels, however, they get a modest tax incentive. Perhaps you shouldn't start smoking the wacky tobacky until that new law is passed! |
