Bad CAFE

Fire of Liberty

Eric Peters has a good piece over at the American Spectator which points out that how the Democrats movement to raise the CAFE standard to 35 mpg causes more harm than good. As Peters notes, Congress should be wary of pushing through this drastic government dictate and seek a more market friendly solution that encourages the auto companies and other entrepreneurs to develop technologies that are friendly to the environment without diminishing the structural integrity of the vehicles or causing massive disruptions in the domestic auto industry. I just hope that Congress weighs the consequences versus the benefit and seek an alternative solution.
