Obama's idea helps both consumers and oil companies.

They're gonna get their money either way, whether its from tax breaks, or charging us more for oil.

Uh oh, I think I saw a plane crash within 100 miles of an oil refinery, time for gas to go up....
Your right, the problem is, then why take a check in the first place. If your going to pay for it anyway, why borrow the money, just to pay back more in the future for even higher prices at the pump.... Your basically buying groceries on a credit card, its going to catch up with you as you pay twice as much in the long run once you figure in the interest.
