The federal gas tax holiday won't do much for the price at the pump. It's only 18 cents.

Now if you are talking state and local gas tax "holidays", that could help people in many states because those taxes are very high in some states. It's high in my state and city. None of these are within Obama's or federal government control.

However Obama did use a "gas tax holiday" for political purposes a number of years back in the Illinois State Senate.

I complain about Obama because there is so much that is wrong with him, but in the context of this thread, he and his political allies are the people who want to keep this country energy deprived. They actively keep this country from it's very own energy resources. The goal seems to be a certain future of extremely high energy prices and energy rationing.
