Bah, we're just rehashing the same argument over. Lets just say that both ways would work and you support one, and I support the other. I simply cannot support an unfair tax, for any reason, because "all men are created equal".
Let me change the subject a little. One of the main reasons I don't like hybreds is that they still use oil. I tend to think it's just delaying disaster, and not by very long. So, what do you think about other alternatives? Hydrogen (fuel cells included) is promising, but extraction methods are currently either environmentaly unsound, or use more power than they produce. Plant fuels (alcohol included) would make a good supplement, but they too are enviornmentally unsound in production and consumption. Thermal/pressure oil production is very promising, but it's in the early stages of development, and it doesn't help air polution much, just a little in the refining process, since oil is still the fuel. (I think thermal/pressure production should be fully implemented anyway, at least enough to dispose of all the non-radioactive toxic/bio-hazardous wastes.) There are others that escape me at the moment, feel free to mention anything I missed.
Personally I think hydrogen is the one that should be getting the most attention. It is the most common element in the known universe, and it's industrial applications are immense. Not to mention it's perfect for space exploration, Jupiter and Saturn are giant filling stations.

Anytime I hear "BBC" I think of my favorite TV show, "Red Dwarf". You like that one? It's about the only TV show I'm a fan of.
