“5% of the country’s air pollution, and estimates indicate consumers spill more than 17,000,000 gallons of fuel each year ”Yes but there's only 7 million people in washington state where this is being proposed.

We are importing oil from other countries because of Government restrictions that have artificially driven up the cost of oil. Iran and Russia need oil to be over $80 a barrel to be profitable. If it's less then that, then they cannot afford their wars. The oil industry makes massive profits when oil production is restricted in the US. The only reason we're paying so much for gasoline at the pump is because the Government is causing it to be harder to get in the US.
