General Motors CEO said WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He said that in response to the proposed MPG hike (up to something like a mandated 60 MPG in 2020 something) saying that it would be cheaper to raise the fuel tax than what the additional MPG regulations would do to the price of cars.

In a way, he is right. If you've got the money, (like the CEO of any auto maker has ), you'll be able to afford the tax hikes. However, anyone who can't afford to get a new car better buy lots of vasoline because the gas pumps are gonna get pretty physical...
