Don't do this Hank . . .
Americans believe it is their birthright as americans to have low priced gas. Cheese eating surrender monkeys may feel differently, but nuts to them.
Gas prices in the US are lower than anywhere in the world that isn't a net exporter of oil (AFAIK), which places (e.g., Venezuela) essentially subsidize consumption (e.g., gas prices of 40c/gal., which doesn't even cover the crude costs).
