Bottom line, if you paid at the pump the REAL cost of the GAS that is
going in your car, you should add in the cost of the entire military
budget for middle east adventures. The public subsidy for petrol is
distorting the market terribly, real environmental concerns are
dismissed. This interference in markets has created a terrible structural imblanance that is the grounds for all this war and the
ones to come.

Were GAS to include its REAL cost, including military costs, it would
be 10 dollars a gallon. Then alternate supply industries become economical and big cars not. The suspended economic pressure is
not permanent, and willb e all that more damaging when balance
returns.
