Sure lowering taxes may save us a few cents at the pump for awhile, but you know that the oil companies will simply raise prices and pocket the profits.

Again, you know not for which you speak.
If you think it is time to conserve, how do you think that LOWERS prices? How do you think that does ANYTHING worth while economically?
-And taxes ARE the issue with economics. When the tax breaks offset your entire gas purchases for the year, they ARE important.
In addition, alternatives ARE available. The big automakers, government, and fuel companies don't want you to use the best there is, though, because they don't make money.
