We should ban jet travel too. And vacations. And weekend trips to Grandma’s house. And any other trip not officially sanctioned by the government.

Don't look now Comrade, but that is probably in the works right now when Obama is Comrade Commissar Obama and the Marxist congress gets in full Marxist session in January 2009. The changes in American lifestyle are going to be vast. Power of the Government Gun will control. You will obey or be sent to prison, stripped of your home, bank accounts, all in the name of good socialism in Amerika.
Soon the government will mandate that you cannot accept a job more than 5 miles from where you live to cut down on driving and pollution.
