Once the November elections are over, politicians will look again at a windfall profits tax on deregulated natural gas as a revenue source to balance the 10% personal tax cut scheduled for 1983. This would make New England's economy more competitive because the region consumes relatively little gas and already pays a high price for what it does consume. Of the pending decisions that will affect federal revenues, gas decontrol will have the greatest benefit for New England. (DCK)
