This guy wants to nationalize the price of gasoline at $3.50 or something and anything over that goes to government.

No free markets for him

Actually his suggestion for gas prices was this. Fix the price at $3.50/gallon. When the international prices drop below this, don't lower the price. Instead reduce everyone's payroll tax by the amount collected. This way, gas usage would be optimized without wastage, alternative fuels would remain competitive and we would not be guzzling dollars down the pockets of terrorists. His suggestion provides a sensible role for govt. in tilting the scales in favor of the folks. I say it again. He is very intelligent.
