Speaking about cutting gas consumption by 20% in 10 years (Bush tells agencies ... $$$):
"I've also asked them to listen to public input, to carefully consider safety, science and available technologies, and evaluate the benefits and costs before they put forth the new regulation," Mr. Bush said.
Will they? evaluate the benefits and the costs? If they do they might find that the costs of achieving lower gas consumption will be lower with a gas tax than CAFE standards.
