Poor countries struggling to grow were crushed by the weight of oil import expenses. Allies in Europe have gone cold this winter as Russia wielded its near-monopoly on gas supplies as a political weapon. And our own economic woes were exacerbated as we shipped billions of dollars overseas to pay our oil bills.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;] Classic economics identifies two basic options to intercede where Adam Smith&#8217;s invisible hand fails: Governments can regulate to force, or prevent, certain actions. The government also can impose targeted taxes, which are almost always the most efficient, least invasive and most transparent remedy for market failure.<\/p>\n<p>In the Jan. 5 edition of the Weekly Standard, conservative writer (and Post columnist) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/wp-dyn\/content\/linkset\/2005\/03\/24\/LI2005032401690.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Charles Krauthammer<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0made a strong case for a &#8220;net-zero gas tax&#8221; proposal that would match, dollar for dollar, an increase in the federal gas tax with a decrease in payroll tax, which is paid by every working American. Because it represents no net tax hike, it would bring the benefits of reduced consumption while putting money into the hands of Americans.<\/p>\n<p>A gasoline tax is transparent, easy to administer and targeted at the one sector that burns most of our oil. We know it would cut imports. When gasoline prices topped $4 a gallon last year, Americans chose to use less, leading to a major drop in gasoline consumption. The gains from accurately priced gasoline would grow as Americans demanded more fuel-efficient vehicles, chose non-petroleum alternatives to power them and found public transit options that work. Pricing gasoline to reflect its true cost to the nation would help spur a vast market in which oil alternatives such as advanced biofuels would become competitive and innovation would flourish.<\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;] The auto industry would benefit from knowing that it could invest aggressively in high-mileage technology without worrying that consumers might turn back to inefficient gas guzzlers. We would cut our greenhouse gas emissions, 30 percent of which come from transportation. Adjusting Americans&#8217; tax burden to put more spending power into their own hands makes sense when household budgets are squeezed. A revenue-neutral oil security tax would take every penny collected at the pump and put it right back into the pockets of consumers.<\/p>\n<p>Options for doing so include cutting the payroll tax, which disproportionately affects the lowest-paid employees, so workers would see extra money every payday. Alternatively, the government could regularly send a check to everyone over 18. I am prepared to work with the Obama administration and colleagues in Congress to devise the most efficient way to return the revenue to the American people, even as we advocate the general policy of a gas tax to promote better cars and alternative fuels.<\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;]\u00c2\u00a0One of the simplest and most effective means available for strengthening U.S. national security is to dramatically reduce our oil dependence. A gas tax that returns money to Americans would take us a long way toward that goal.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Related AFW Post<\/strong>:<br \/>\n<a title=\"Permanent Link to Lugar Letter\" rel=\"bookmark\" href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/2009\/01\/03\/lugar-letter\/\">Lugar Letter<\/a> &#8211; <em>3rd January 2009<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/fed\/dsc_0001.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Senator Dick Lugar visiting with Sister City International representatives: Dr. John Chodacki (far left), Stanley Barker (left) both of Fort Wayne and Aaron Goetz (far right) of Indianapolis.
