>C'mon, you know the answer. Because the cost of gasoline in the U.S.
is way too low, considering its health, environmental, and spatial consequences (i.e., sprawl).

Why why why, that's Communism, or Socialism, or some kind of other horribly un-American -ism. Depriving people of their right to drive SUVs the size of dump trucks to Starbucks.
