Bloomie, for a billionaire, has more common sense that most. Putting a few measly bucks into the hands of anyone, even the working poor, cannot be justified given the damage it will do the infrastructure those same people will drive on.

It's also as Obama says, a gimmick, pure and simple.

It won't put any appreciable money into the hands of anyone at any economic level, and who's to say the bastard oil companies won't raise prices to make up the difference?

It won't save a single gallon of gas. In fact it might lead to slighly increased usage.

It won't keep a single nickle OUT of the hands of the Arabs and Venezuelans, etc.

It's BS. It's HILLARY-ous.
