First the GOP, now Dems offer little hope for curbing gas costs

The Arizona Daily Star

...Consider that some of Congress's global-warming proposals resemble measures already in place in Western Europe, where gas prices currently range from $6 to $7 per gallon. And even those prices have not reduced emissions in Europe. If $6 to $7 isn't enough to discourage driving there, what will it take here? Strange is it may seem, despite public anger over high gasoline prices, Washington has all but given up on trying to do anything effective about it. Given the energy proposals making their way through Congress now, the best consumers can hope for is that all of them stall.
