Right. I'm hoping for a Rumsfeld/Scooter Libby team in '08.

Max

Quayle/Forbes in 08. I'm going to vote for Goldwater, again.

That damned liberal??

Max

The damned libertarian.


At least he wasn't a libertine...

Baby Hugo is a wacko.

Anyone who buys Citco gasoline is putting money in his pocket.
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.
Why? So the working poor will not be able to get to work? So those
without
the means to buy gasoline to fuel their cheap, older, but consumptive
vehicles will become completely insolvent, rather than just partially
so?
So your Yugo will be vindicated?
So those who can afford to pay it will be forced to pay it. There
should be exemptions for the poor and for those who drive for a
living.

I, you, and most of the people on this ng can afford to pay
$5/gallon.


Of course. But many can't. How are you going to administer exemptions
for the working poor? The cost of the gummint's exemption program would
probably exceed the revenue taken in via the increased gasoline revenues.
Or hadn't you noticed how incredibly inefficient our federal gummint is?

Max

Shish..next thing you're going to have him suggesting we go to ration
coupons...

I'm sure that wasn't his intent but that is what happened...I could write
a book on how the system is played from my experiences dealing with it in
Human Resources..it is very frustrating trying to help someone get a good
job, start them on their way to self-sufficiency only to have them throw
it all away for the public weldare...

Ooops.

Actually, during Clinton's Presidency, many programs were put into place
to educate young single mothers so they could become self-sufficient.
Problem is, they came out of a system left over from your Great Society
that did pay money, food stamps, and energy assistance based on the size
of your fa,ily. If it comes down to working for 10 bucks and hour or
getting it all doled out, the option is usually the dole. The other
problem is that there is no work ethic. You get more if you don't work.
Mind you..I am not talking about people making minimum wage here...

???But most of us learn because of them because the consequences of our

entrenching these people in the system...it's a self-perpetuating system...

It also hits small business in a big way...my son-in-law runs a tree
service. It's him and a part-time guy that comes along when he has to
climb to handle the ropes...his business is gas intensive...the chipper
wagon, the stump grinder, the various chain saws, his loader...when he
tried to pass on the increased cost of gas in his estimates, he started to
lose business. So instead, he is now quoting his old prices and working a
midnight shift job to boot...what;s right about that? I'm sure most
farmer's are in the same boat, as well as landscape guys...even with the
ag benefits on diesel, it's still horrendous...and when gas goes up, so
does everything else...so then you not only have people unable to go
anywhere, they also can't afford to buy gresh vegetables tha thacve been
tricked in at exorbiatant prices.


Have you not read Adam Smith?

It's the guiding hand, Katy.

With astronomical gasoline and fuel oil prices that tree will be worth more.
People will cut down trees to heat their homes or power their cars.


I, Gilligan, have devised the most efficient and benign form of
transportation yet!

It's the geothermal car! Next will be the geothermal boat!

Hisssss!!!!

I would say on the whole that Johnson's 'Great Society' was more of a
success than Nixon's Viet Nam.

Are you getting 'Great Society' confused with the Rural Electrification
Program? Torches were unnecessary.


And if it hadn't been for paying single teenage girls to stay home and

It's about sex, isn't it? Poor people shouldn't be gettin' any! Neither
should Democrats!!

DSK

Spay and neuter them all, I say!!!!


Can't argue with that.
