Nobel Laureate Penzias: U.S. Needs a $1 a Gallon Gas Tax

So like crack addicts we will keep filling our SUV's with cheap Oil. A true energy policy really only works when you use the price mechanism. We need to raise the price of transportation fuels to encourage more efficient autos.

The one dollar tax proposed above could be done by adding 1 cent to the gas tax every month for the next 8 years.

The real trick is to keep this additional money for use in infrastucture projects and not earmarks.
