Jim, I think a bill mandating fuel price stability would be unenforceable...especially since we buy a lot of crude overseas. No US law can be enforced on, say, Saudi Arabia, unless the Saudi government WANTS to recognize that US law. A US law is basically null and void beyond US borders, except as it applies to US citizens.
Of course, the oil industry would also balk at government instituted price controls, either on the wholesale OR the retail level. And my best guess is that, except in cases where martial law is declared, even price controls instituted for reasons of national security would probably be declared unconstitutional. And do you actually think those high-priced oil company lawyers wouldn't take the government to court, if the government did anything that might cut into their string of consecutive record profits? I believe those bloodsuckers would be filing lawsuits before the ink on the proposed bill was dry .
Just MY opinion...YOUR mileage may vary, void where prohibited, objects in mirror may be closer than they appear, and alcohol may intensify any side effects.
