People are electing to buy the fuel with their own money. So, what is the implication of your comment? We should force people to stop doing what they want?

I don't have kids, I walk to work, and I sit in the dark a whole lot (in the winter). I could deal if my state banned all motor vehicles (except the interstates, in order to stay Commerce Clause compliant) and coal mining/burning. I doubt most could.
