Default What's the worry? Be happy!

If the following article is true about gas prices going to $15/gallon then
why is everyone so worried about global warming?

http://www.businessandmedia.org/arti...521145247.aspx

At $15 gallon there would be much less gasoline/fuel used. We would also see
a rebirth of sailing, bicycling, walking, fiberglass sailboats would soar in
value, food would further increase in cost and obesity would wane. I would
even bet we would start seeing more houses with windmill additions. We would
see less stinkpotters, less airplanes, less cars, less RVs, less ATV's.
People would not be able to afford to live in the "boondocks" so rural
property would be worth less. Housing developments may be torn down to make
way for biofuel agriculture. Governments would see much less tax revenue,
they would be scaled back greatly too.

Liberals and environmentalists should be leaping with glee at this news. I
am! A bright new future for rugged individualism!
