We have one down the street, Regular is 2.07 but right across the street Exxon Mobil is 2.09. They are always 2 - 3 cents cheaper so they can suck in the dumb ****s to stupid to know any better. We should be paying $5/gallon. I find it amusing that you and the left wing are the first to condemn Bush for his role with big oil, but turn around and advocate $5 per gallon gasoline. It should be in the form of a gas tax. Big oil has nothing to do with it. I'd much rather the additional cost of gasoline be in the form of profits to big oil than in the form of additional federal gas taxes. The government needs to learn to live within its means. Just dumping more revenue into Washington won't solve anything. And the bottom line: the working poor still won't be able to fill their vehicles with gasoline, regardless of where the money goes. You live in an area with relative affluence. Around here we have lots of po' folk, and I watch them struggle with the price of fuel every time I go to the pumps. Most of them own the only vehicles they can afford--big old, poorly-running American cars with horrible fuel economy. I put gas in one elderly woman's car one morning. She had put in $2 worth--all she had--which was not even a gallon. She had to drive to a friend's funeral in a nearby town and she was worried that she wouldn't make it, let alone get home. So I put in $20 worth--it was the most that had been put in that old junk heap in over a year, she said. I recall John Kerry advocating much higher fuel prices during the campaign, ostensibly in order to force people and automakers to gravitate to more economical vehicles, and to encourage alternative energy schemes. Sounds great on paper, but no one seems to care that a large segment of our population will suffer under such artificially-high fuel prices. Max |
