Obama Administration Unwilling To Waiver On Tough CAFE Standards In Light Of Lower Gas Prices

Gas prices will go up again....

And more efficient cars will keep demand lower...with benefits for all.

The Obama Administration is not into the free market. They are into ruling people by passing laws.

We can thank Obama for the lower gas prices. Continuing the momentum with gas efficient cars will only help.

What???? You can thank all those risk takers who invested in fracking and have put the USA back into a position of solid competitive energy production. Also a lot of good high paying jobs. The Obama administration has been in the way and hasn't helped a lick.

Terry989 I'll bet your Subaru--or is it a Prius--is coated with Obama/Biden stickers

No - - - but your Hyundai is covered with "I'm an idiot and proud of it" stickers. Stick to selling Hyundai cars since you have obviously achieved the Peter principle at an early age. The sticker fits because you call everyone in the industry an idiot and tell us how you could run all of these companies better than they can. You tell us what cars we should be buying, and then call us idiots for not buying what you tell us to. You tell us every German manufacture should be building $25K sports cars, even though the sports car market is stagnating. You cry out for Government controls for Tesla, but tell us you don't want controls at all. You tell us you are have driven everything on the track and you are always the fastest drive there. And yet you lost your Porsche/Audi dealership (doubtful you ever had one)because you had no clue as to what the customer wants and how to service and market to these customers. You don't tell them what a swinging dick you are and what they should be buying, they tell you what they want to buy and you sell it to them. Yes, Idiot fits the bill - - - an apt bumper stick for you.

I could care less about Cafe standards, if people want to buy a car that get 1mpg so what? Why does it matter? On the other end though I think they should have really tough pollution controls, I want nothing but rose smelling oxygen coming out of those 4inch exhaust pipes.

couldn't not could

WTF did fuel economy regulations ever have to do with the price of a barrel of oil? The expectation that oil prices somehow have any bearing on CAFE standards is 100% non sequitur. Why is this even an article?
