"Look, drive whatever you please. But SUVs aren't famous for being fuel efficient and when we're dependent on terrorist producing nations for oil, a shift in tastes toward smaller more fuel efficient cars would help a lot."

Let the market dictate what Americans want to drive. Depending on foreign oil is a bad thing, however, that could be curtailed by more efforts and legislation on drilling HERE(America). A shift in tastes to drive smaller cars is fine, but the government mandating it through laws is very oppressive.

On a side note, drilling more in Alaska is going to help. I just wish that drilling more in the Gulf off of Florida would have been Ok'd also.

Let the market dictate what Americans want to drive.

Ordinarilly I'd agree. However, I fear that the appetite of the market for cars of high fuel consumption is what is putting money into the hands of these wacky mideast oil nations, which they then divert to terrorists which are trying to kill us. We will not have oil from another source any time soon.
