The gas stations round here only let you fill up 75$ at a time, and its a ------- joke, put 75$ in and im at 5/8 a tank... ---- that, have to swipe twice to fill up.... If you are going to ---- me in the ***, atleast make it convenient.
OH and ---- 36 gallon tanks

in two years other sources of fuel will be mainstream when gas prices go nuts, why would any alternative fuel source company reveal their technology now and have to compete with oil companies, when in a few years they will be the monopoly and have no chance of failure when they can chage whatever they want

Drill ANWR, duh. I swear, Alaska needs to become independent. The rest of America is full of idiots. If it weren't for ******* in California, we'd be up to our ******** in crude, and stuffing our pockets with your money. Of course, G.W. would then invade us because he heard that we used to have WMD's 15 years ago.

AFTER you add in tax states here in the US add on topof what the Feds tax we arent too far off of what taxes are in europe. like i said in an earlier post cleaner gas costs more money to produce. and once you figure out that our money is worth ---- compared to thiers, yes thier gas seems outrageous.
average taxes on gas (including state and local taxes) in the US is 47%
and way to get your info from over 3 years ago. and from a "cristian science" website. we all know how sane and trustworthy religious people are.

the socislists there want to socially engineer people to be better able to control, thats why they want public transportation, they choose where you should and should not go.

For the gas strike, it will never happen, before gas striking yourself, pressure local police, transportation department, and fire departments to try and cut down and become more green.

What about using Coal to produce oil? Why is this not talked about as much?
Current prices on oil is what, 100+ a barrel rite? If coal company's refined there coal to produce oil it would come out to 50 dollers a barrel. That is atleast half the price, why hasn't it happened? Coal company's will lose money, they make more money selling the coal to power plants etc. to produce energy and noone has pushed for them to make it into oil.
Also, GeoThermo energy, not widly talked about one again, They just brought back a plant somewhere in cali that uses steam to spin there turbine, no more coal. Completely 100% green.
If all plants used geothermo to creat energy, then caol wouldn't be needed near as much, therefore driving the price of coal down, therefore allowing coal company's to profit by turning coal into oil and our prices would be 50 dollers a barrel again.
It all comes down to supply and demand, noone wants to make the decision to make a change because the money is good for the major company's rite now, why take a loss, even when it might make them more money in the long run?
Its all about NOW not about the future.
