I'm sure he forgot to mention that OUR tax dollars go to pollution abatement caused by HIS stinkin' car.

Not to mention a certain war that wouldn't be happening if we weren't hungry for oil. We're all paying for that -- latest figure was $20,000 per household.

Arguments based solely on economics always boil down to perceived "unfairness" because somebody winds up paying taxes for something they don't use, or vice versa ("Why should my tax dollars be spent on firefighters? I've never had a house fire"). Duhhhh.
