Anyway, on a serious note, I'm not sure I get the point you're making Axon. We should pay more for our petrol because we drive more efficient cars?? Wut? We are force-fed the line that [naive] petrol tax is used to pay for our road infrastructure [/naive] so the points you make above should make our petrol cheaper, no?
Or was your point that it has less impact on us? Not sure we cover smaller distances either, and the only time I use public transport is when I go into the smoke (infrequently these days).
