While contending that high gas prices are, on balance, good forAmerica, President Obama vowed he would have his people look into the matter to ensure that any wrongdoing is punished.
If having to pay more to fill up the SUV encourages a driver to switch to public transit, thats a good thing, the President argued. The fewer cars there are on the road, the cleaner our air is going to be. Who could be against cleaner air?

It expropriates value that, by right, ought to belong to all of the people. It is this type of expropriation that will not be tolerated by my Administration.
