If you think gas prices are too high to take a family road trip this summer, just have your corporate sponsors pay.

This is a great idea!

I bet if we all just wrote to these corporations, explained that we too would like to have our gasoline paid for so we too could take a Great™ American™ Road Trip™ all of these companies would gladly cut us a check.

Shell can just pay in Premium Unleaded if that's easier?
