However, a group of hoodlums promoting the false god of common sense not only kept that from happening, but returned us to speeds as high as or higher than before. Speed (like guns) KILLS! I thought president Ford demanded a mandatory 55 mph speed limit to promote fuel economy and cut oil consumption seeing there was a supposed 'shortage' and pump gas jumped from .35c to a whopping .74c a gallon practically over night. It was Tricky Dick. |
