Wow, The Congress Agrees That Car Makers Need to Have Vehicles with 35 MPG Average Mileage by 2020. What a Break Through.

"Otto von Bismarck said that there are two things you don’t want to watch being made are “laws and sausage”. (The exact quote is, "Laws are like sausages. It's better not to see them being made.") But, give me a break, the new energy bill coming out of Congress requires that automakers have an average gas mileage rating of 35 mpg for everything they sell in 2020. If you drive a car in 2020 that gets less than 50 – 100 mpg you will not be able to eat."
