Default Fuel prices moving up, just in time for spring boating and driving?

1. "Gas-guzzler" is a perjorative term.


No, it is descriptive.

It is accurate in many cases, not so in others.

For example, a 5 ton SUV driven to the grocery store for a
bottle of milk is guzzling gas. The same vehicle, used to
haul large heavy objects over unfavorable terrain, is not.
The difference is in utility.

2. I never claimed everyone wants to drive a vehicle that is less gas-
efficient than other vehicles.


Correct.
But you did claim that those who do not want to drive an
inefficient vehicle were stupid.


3. Your statement refutes nothing I've ever posted.


Actually, it refutes everything you've posted and also
points out your own stupidity & close mindedness.



The FACT that oil is a non-renewable resource





Nobody has brought this up, but now that you have, I must ask why you're
opposed to finding more


Why do you assume I am opposed to finding more?
Another stupid non-fact posted by you.


... since doing so would keep all energy more
affordable.


Clue- oil is non-renewable. No matter how much exploration
is done, we will run out eventually.

A very smart scientist... who made a lot of money in the oil
business... named King Hubbert worked out the math of global
oil supply a long time ago.

Google up the words "Hubbert peak"

Of course, you haven't liked any of the FACTS introduced
into this thread so far, and you won't like these FACTS
either because they prove you're wrong.
