No more gas .....
 

Marina Operators are starting to discontinue selling Gas. This,
apparenetly due to more people fueling at gas Stations. Those with
bigger Boats....you're on your own. Call the Gas Truck to make a "
Special Delivery ".

The news includes Diesel, as well.

EPA one reason. Higher prices for fuel from Marina Operators another.
Since it is not for road use, taxes should be less? They should have a
price advantage. If they passed, that along, to Boaters, no one would
buy it on the way to the marina.
Another problem is fewer people are boating or at least as much because
of the economy and higher marina fuel prices as well as elsewhere.

EPA regulations are a big reason. New tank regulations have greatly
increased the cost and regulatory complexity for selling fuels of all
types. Small volume sellers frequently find it cheaper and easier to
just get out of the business.

But Obama believes you need more taxes.

But excellent demonstration of why they don't work. Tax them out of
business now they don't pay as much taxes. Elasticity of taxation.

Hey, socialist or statism types figure if you can own a boat, you have
money they want to steal.

Funny, your Islam raised buddy Obama is doing what Osama could not
do....bankrupt the USA!!! Unadjust 20% unemployment, record home
repossessions, record state debts...makes me wonder where they get the
money as investors would be stupid to loan these states that kind of
money. Probably tapping the US Fed fraud money creation.

Hey, just saying, Obama is doing a better job than Osama.

Maybe time to try it with no more new debt, no more new taxes, no more
government fraud. Do some serious house cleaning starting at the top.
Michelle does not need 50+ staff to curl her hair.

Maybe Obama thinks the US isn't at war with Islam, tell that to Islam.
Muslim Brotherhood loves Obama for his efforts in Egypt and Libya.

Remember when everyone would rather cut off their arm than violate their
Christian ethics and faith?
The very idea that you told did wrong it would
tear at your conscience so bad you would shatter until you repented.
I think Washington has a number of Folks who will repent, in their
retirement or commit suicide as they watch what they sat in motion tear
apart this Republic and our Children future.
Perhaps enough or too much money will sate their conscience? Will they
take it with them? Will they try to repent by helping the third world
become an unsustainable, for them, western Country and condemn their
Population to poverties and miseries they think they are helping them
avoid.
Perhaps the charity contributions will save their soul and sate their
conscience? Perhaps this is why alcohol consumption is so high among them?

Yep. Large gas station retailers can keep pace with the tank and
saftey upgrades, but most (especially the small ones) Marina stores
can't. If EPA steps in and says you have to spend $70,000.00 to meet
their update requirements or quit selling fuel, what are you gonna do?
Especially if you don't sell that much gross in a year?
This doesn't include the liability insurance of a tank leakage into
the lake, harbor or river, and clean up fees etc.

buy it on the way to the marina.
Another problem is fewer people are boating or at least as much because
of the economy and higher marina fuel prices as well as elsewhere.


EPA regulations are a big reason. New tank regulations have greatly
increased the cost and regulatory complexity for selling fuels of all
types. Small volume sellers frequently find it cheaper and easier to
just get out of the business.


Yep. Large gas station retailers can keep pace with the tank and
saftey upgrades, but most (especially the small ones) Marina stores
can't. If EPA steps in and says you have to spend $70,000.00 to meet
their update requirements or quit selling fuel, what are you gonna do?
Especially if you don't sell that much gross in a year?
This doesn't include the liability insurance of a tank leakage into
the lake, harbor or river, and clean up fees etc.


Just means instead of parking boats in Miami or Boca Raton, go over to a
Caribbean island and park it there. Obama's master plan, detax America
by sending it offshore. Because if you tank holds 500 gallon, I don't
see them carting 5 gallon jerry cans all day.

Good point, but if I had a crew I would rather have them on deck in
bikinis than slinging gas.
