I would argue that even though it saves the motorists a puny amount of money, it shows some goodwill from the government toward some measure of relief from sky-high gas prices.
I would go further and suggest that the government think out of the box and offer significant compensation to buyers of all-electric vehicles in order to stimulate the demise of gas internal combustion engines. The sooner that happens the sooner oil companies will reduce prices due to lack of demand. I think we should also consider building better, safer nuclear facilities to tie into our electric grid networks. The technology exists to utilize renewable energy in lieu of f****l f**ls that cause g****l w*****g disasters to our planet. We lack the urgency to hasten the t***sition.
