Gas and Food hording will commence soon. People will stay close to home, freedom of travel effectively limited to the few. More people will turn to the government for "help". Yup all is going according to plan.....Commrad... Damn it, really need to get the KLR up and running! | ||

I guess the fun will start when you have to rechage your batteries at a special rechaarge station and the price will $50.00 a pop. | ||

I need my 1964 honda 50 back...it got AMAZING fuel economy...my XB isn't bad, it got 57mpg last sunday... | ||
| Vtpeg |
I just plunked down 1k for a ten year old ford focus. 35mpg for those times when the buell won't do. Work truck only gets 12 mpg, and thats more expensive diesel. | ||

I sure hope every one is happy with CHANGE. | ||

Whisper, 2 things, you spelled Comrade wrong, and.... silence, tovarich! You reveal the plan too soon! these bitter clingers still have a tiny chance of reversing the Great Decline! Not very big, I admit, far too many are useful idiots for the Plan to fail. | ||

"6$ GAS!!!" When they drop it back to $5.00 a gallon people will think there getting a deal. | ||

$4.45 yesterday , . . . . up about $1.00 in the last month . . . I fill the pickup about 3 times a week at about $80 a pop . . that'll be over $100 now. And . . .with GM headed back into the tank after reporting dismal first quarter results the Obama administration is trying (it's been kept quiet apparently) to dump the governments stock before we get too far into the election cycle. We . . as in you and I . . own 26% of it and the company is right back in the same trap that took them to bankruptcy. . . the make their only profits off the Suburban and large pickups and those things just ain't selling (Ford surpassed GM for only the 2nd time last month). You'll recall the Big O parading about touting his business acumen and assuring us we'd "make money on the deal" . . .well the stock needs to be at $56.00 for us to break even. For the FULL STORY Well . . it's at it's lowest point since we bailed the lazy bastards out . . .
Apparently some folks never learn . . . And this . . . by the same folks who just spent hundreds of thousands of YOUR dollars to buy SUPER HERO CAPES for unemployed folks to wear around so that they wouldn't have their ego eroded. If you tried your level best to think up stupid shit . . . . . you could not approach what the world's largest millionaires club (ask sometime how folks earning about $100K become millionaires so quickly) led by a neighborhood organizer and a the Veep of Sleep are doing. We deserve better leaders. | ||

I wish both parties could at least agree that whatever their "good intentions" are, they can't go into debt to fund them. So either have an honest, fair, and upfront fight and get the taxes raised, or try and accomplish the good intentions with whatver slice of the total budget you end up with. But no debt to get there. It's not courageous, moral, or rightous to give away "somebody elses money". | ||

Again, Florida in the news for all the wrong reasons. Pathetic. | ||

Again, Florida in the news for all the wrong reasons. Pathetic. I love my state...it never ceases to amaze me what dumbshit we can come up with. Every day is a new adventure. At least gas is only $3.75 a gallon.  | ||

I read that Obama was quoted saying "get use to it...trade your gas car in for a hybrid..." Really? In Lakeland, FL it cost me nearly $60 to fill a 16 gallon tank in a Mazda 6. It pretty fuel effient, but when I drive 80 miles round trip...it adds up. Luckily I travel on of state, in which my company raised our per diem rates due to the economic costs, and when I home to make that 80 mile round trip I only do it every other week because my brother works with me as well. We take turns driving. People are getting so stupid on I4 I won't take my bike on it anymore. I've been blasted once...it didn't feel too good. | ||

It's time for a new party and I'm not talking Dem or Rep. I'm sick of both of these sorry excuses for political parties. I'm ready to see Lib or some other one. | ||

When are you guys going to figure out that you have an enemy that is causing a lot of problems in your country. Gas prices are just one of them. It is called the Obama regime. Here is a quote from the Secretary of Energy, Steven Chu, just one of a number of eco-marxists around the so-called President. "Somehow we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe," Mr. Chu, who directs the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California, said in an interview with The Wall Street Journal in September. So if you want your gov't to help you, you are out of luck. Just be grateful that you didn't vote for him. You didn't vote for him, right?  | ||

Nothing like socializing the fact that gas might get to $6/gal so when it does it's old news and no one cares... At this point, the oil companies have no reason NOT to charge $6/gal by August. | ||

>>>>At this point, the oil companies have no reason NOT to charge $6/gal by August. I agree. You'll recall that recently, when folks were talking about $5.00, that I said $6.00 by the end of summer. Be mindful that the same feds who have us on the cusp of having our credit rating changed from AAA to "Negative" are, via gas taxes, the greatest single benefactor from rising gasoline prices. It gets scarier . . . I, who spend about $28 a day in tolls and drive about 130 miles per day at 13MPG, get reimbursed by . . . you guessed it . . the largest public utility in the country . . . so . . the long and short of it is that you are paying your gas bill AND mine . . when you pay your electric bill. There are idiots steering the ship of state . . . | ||

all they really have to do, is force the meters to be filled in liters, and the currency to be paid in Yen. .... most americans will have no f'n idea what just happened. the currency reevaluation and schema happens after the election, no matter which party gets elected. | ||

There is a silver lining to this, all you have to do is buy stock in the companies that own oil reserves, then you can share in their profits. Simple to get rich in the world today. |
