Beef production is a horrible producer of CO2 per Calorie versus vegitables. Can the US government determine how much beef you can eat, or mandate that you become a vegan?

I personally think that drinking Starbucks coffee is a monumental waste of resources to the tune of over $8 billion a year. How about we start drinking $0.25 cups of coffee and use the spare change to cure cancer, or save the world.

We tried small cars, people hated them and went to the exempt SUVs and light trucks. If you open a loop hole in the CAFE standards for small businesses, everyone is going to become a part-time carpenter.

Using CAFE standards to cure CO2 emissions is like using smaller beer bottles solve drunk driving.

For those worried about muscle cars, be flexible....I've had bikes capable of low 10's @130 mph 1/4 mile times, and they'd STILL get 40mpg if you rode 'em with even a LITTLE common sense. That, is your solution for speed.
