More fuel efficiency = more driving = no reduction in oil dependence Don't these legislators think that if we increase fuel economy, and the auto makers actually achieve it, that people won't just drive farther/more, perhaps not reducing our foreign oil dependence at all? The only want to reduce foreign dependence is to source it at home or invent some new technology that doesn't require a foreign fuel.
