Lower gas prices Mr. President?

I received an email from John McCain today (as did many of you reading this). While I expect to vote for him in November, I still do not aggree with some of his ideas. In case you are wondering, I also subscribe to Clinton's and Obama's missives as well.

Here is a copy of my reply to Senator McCain.

"I oppose your plan to reduce Federal revenues by suspending gasoline taxes. The American people must learn that energy costs money. These attempts to delude the population into believing they can continue to enjoy artificially low costs will weaken our ability to compete in the world markets. Our grandchildren will pay the cost of these short-sighted programs. For the same reason, I oppose releasing strategic reserves.

As my future President, I insist you plan for the future of my children and grandchildren. Short-term fixes are not the answers to our problems.

Sincerely,

Michael Myklin"

I know that being willing to make a stand is unpopular - but this country can not continue to bankrupt our children's futures with short-term fixes that exist just to get someone elected.
