The no driving completely would be an excellent start.

But you'll never hear the US Government advocate it because no driving means no gas is being used which means the oil companies are going to lose money.

We could have already had alternative fuel program (as well as a national health care system) funded with all the money spend on Iraq. I think the number is now up to 800 billion.
