How about a compromise, to make it so Section 1 is less strict, Section 2 requires a consumer safety warning if it doesn't meet the requirements, rather than imprisonment, and Section 3 is repealed?
I'm willing to compromise on Sections 1 & 3, but I don't see why Section 2 is bad. Knowingly and willingly providing bad drinking water is a crime, in my opinion, that needs to be punished.
I submit the following amendment:
Section 1:
a: Repeal of Sections 2, 4 and 5 is eliminated.
b: Section 3 is repealed entirely.
c: The minimum standards outlined in Section 1 will be reduced in all categories for 2009 by 3 mpg, for 2011 by 4 mpg, and the standards for 2014 will be eliminated entirely and discussed again when the need arises.
Section 2: The federal Atlasian gasoline tax will be raised by $0.25/gallon to encourage the operation of fuel efficient cars.
I support this, seeing as how the bill in it's current form would likely not pass.
