Calif. Group Says Stimulus Checks Went For Gas

snip...
The California Public Interest Research Group calculates that an average household has spent more than $1,300 on gasoline since mid-February, when President Bush signed the tax rebate law.

The group says much of the stimulus money wound up going to oil companies, and points out that gas prices are higher in areas with less public transportation.
