Politicians could never be trusted. Even in the golden age those shysters lied.
In 1942, the U.S. Government invoked the war status to proclaim the rationing of gasoline and distributed A-cards or B-cards. The public was sympathetic with WWII being fought and it was clear America needed to conserve fuel.
The real reason that government decided to give out those A-cards or B-cards was not gas, it was tires. The excuse, as always, was public safety. When the war began America had more than enough fuel to last two decades, but no rubber for tires.
So Washington with its average intelligence, understood average human nature. They concluded that if the sale of new tires they banned, citizens would just drive the same way until the old ones wore out cause a massive safety hazard—so they lied and rationed gasoline.
Average American acquiesced and drove less, and political car pool got bigger!
