Some of you still think that you are going to "cut consumption"and that will somehow fix things?What will fix things is if we march the crooks out of Washington DC on the point of bayonettes.If we dont do that all they are going to do is keep raising it until we do.Its like forcing us to have an uprising so they can declare Marshall Law.Its like our own Government is doing this because they think that becoming a North American Union and trashing our dollar is going to save them.Its not,and if there is no United States,there is anarchy.These crooks think if it gets too bad they will just go underground,and nuke us.I read that somewhere a few years ago,and it looks like it could be true.If you are a politician,why do you set there and do nothing?Either you are stupid,or held hostage I think.If you want to try and figure out why we are in the mess we are in,there is page after page of"cronies"in all kinds of corporations,not just oil.After a while oil companies start to look kind of like good guys compared to some of them.Big names that have been responsible for misery in our country for many years.These are the "they"that people talk about.They have their cops out there hitting people for them,and the people in congress are afraid of them being next,or are evil and stupid.I dont know which.How things ever got to here is because of money.Congress has been for sale for a long time.This is what thanks we get for working hard our whole life.Now instead of getting anywhere we get this,a broken government,a broken medical care system,overwhelming taxes,sky high prices,and a bought out media thats nothing but a cheerleader for corporations.Oh,and if you want to say"Its going to get worse before it gets better"shut up and offer a solution.Truckers will be broke before long.Also where I am,there is very little being planted yet,too wet.What if you add a drought.Water can cause a drought because farmers cant plant if it rains all the time.Would you rather have food that truckers can bring you,or go to California and get it yourself to conserve fuel cause your pickup can get better mileage than a truck?There comes a time when arguments get stupid,and conservative arguments start out that way lots of times.The railroad is not going to do anything,much less save you.You need to hope that trucks can continue running,but its going to get high priced to ship anything.You better come up with a plan of some kind.Looks like nothing is going to be done to the speculators who are responsible for 60% of the price of fuel.The politicians nowdays are Conservative when they want your support,and blindly you do,then turn right around and beat you for doing it.
