The Democrat Congress wants to showboat their solution to high gas prices by demonizing the Oil Industry thru a Windfall Profits Tax.  The likely solution to this is oil and gas would get more, not less expensive as the taxes would be passed along to consumers in higher prices.  Plus, some oil companies may just decide to refocus their sales elsewhere where they aren't taxed so much.  This again would lower supply and increase taxes.  

   My solution is simple -- Windfall Stupidity Tax.   Congress should pass a law that collects extra gas tax revenue from the districts and states whose Congresscritters continue to stifle reasonable and progressive development of known oil resources on federal lands.  The stupid people that support these politicians should face the consequences of their stupid support for pols in the econut's pockets. 

Districts and States with Congressmen and Senators who don't support active drilling and development of oil resources on federal lands pay 10 cents extra gas tax for each Senator and Congressmen who votes against development of homeland oil resources.  This shall be known as the Windfall Stupidity Tax.

Residents of Districts and States get a 10 cents reduction in gas tax for each Senator and Congressmen that supports developing fully developing homeland oil resources.

   Stupid people who support less energy and higher gas prices should pay for their positions.  The Windfall Stupid tax revenue would be redirected to the poor intelligent residents of other areas who have to suffer thru the stupid energy policies of politicians who don't fully understand the need to develop homeland oil resources.

Uh, hello GOP.   This is something you ought to use to at least entertain folks with while you also make a point about what the Drill Nothing Democrats are doing to average working families.
