I'm in Florida, my mom told me she heard Jeb say that the state had 5 days supply.

I wouldn't mind rationing, but rationing in this way.

You could only buy 10 gallons at a time.

If a person wanted to hit three gas stations to fill up their tank, sobeit, let them go to the trouble.

But the average person is going to get their 10 gallons and not come back till they need another 10.

IMHO, this won't necessarily conserve gas, but it would even out the supply and demand issues if the rate that fuel flows into each state is slowed.

You must be under 35. You don't remember "odd/even" rationing in 1974?
