Default No Chance it would pass the Senate or the Gov would sign.

For a variety of reasons it seems clear that the American Public has decided to let the market determine our energy policy. It probably has to do with a healthy distrust of Government and a trust in the laws of supply and demand and the resultant market solutions. As the price of gas increases , alternative energy sources and distribution networks will become available. In a free market society, there will always be a supply at the least cost to meet demand...if you can keep the gov out of it. About 40 years ago, Sen Jackson said the the last of the oil reserves will remain in the ground as there will be cheaper sources availble.
