House Democrats vote to raise gasoline price

The Democrats in the House of Representatives have apparently voted to raise the cost of energy as a way to lower the cost of energy:

WASHINGTON – The House approved $18 billion in new taxes on the largest oil companies Wednesday as Democrats cited record oil prices and rising gasoline costs in a time of economic troubles.

They cited rising costs as a reason to raise costs more? Super genius House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer acknowledged “this legislation alone will not bring down gas prices.” Ya think? The House Democrats are either economically illiterate, or they count on gullible voters being so.
