Gas Prices and the impact on you and I.

[Lolwtf Profile]

Well, just payed $3.50/Gallon regular unleaded here in Minnesota; multiply that by a 26 gallon fuel tank. It wasn't too long ago that people were complaining about the spike from around $2.50/Gal. to $3.00/Gal. And, now that the prominent news sources are saying gas will hit 4-5$ Gal. this summer; what will come of America as we know it?

Our economy is going to suffer, because every product is transported using fossil fuels. So of course food will go up in price, as well as shipping costs for businesses, and taxes will most likely incline due to the amount of public services that depend upon fuel. Some of these are school buses, police officers, ambulances, and other city necessities.

Americans are finding it harder to sustain themselves in this economy. Which will lead to more foreclosures, more criminals (due to the strain theory), and even more taxes going to fund an out of control government, and that's to name the very least.

Why do we depend upon foreign oil; and pay so dearly for it? There is no need to buy from other countries when underneath American soil, is the largest oil fields ever known to man. Because, of certain ideology such as the "go green" movement, and laws President Obama set in place. We are not allowed to tap into these fields. As of right now in North Dakota we are drilling wells into these oil fields, and only capping them. President Obama doesn't want us to become an independent oil supplying nation. And environmentalists don't want us mining oil in America.

So we just allow ourselves to go bankrupt? No, we shouldn't but that is the sadistic agenda. Throughout North Dakota, South Dakota, parts of Montana, and well up into Canada the amount of oil in the ground makes Saudi Arabia, and Lybia look like oil 'puddles' compared to our oil 'ocean'. And most people know about the vast amount in Alaska. So how much money would all this be worth if we sold all the oil in just the lower 48 in this economy? 6-8 TRILLION dollars. We could have oil all the way up until 2075 if we managed our own oil supplies, and only sold some to make up for our deficit.

I think that the BP spill in the Gulf was planned, and done for a reason; to avoid drilling into American resources. It also got all the environmentalists to join together to say "no more drilling". This "go green" movement is just another technique to allow "stupid" people to rant and rave with other "morons" about how the world is in peril. (when it actually isn't at all) That's probably why CNN gave up a long time ago on their attempts to drill the American public with useless data that wasn't even collected scientifically, nor legitimately. (or even with common sense)

So in conclusion, America can sustain itself with (it's own) fossil fuels without paying exorbitant prices from the international oil company. This is just another part of the agenda to put us into undo hardship, and stress. Wait until they start raising taxes which will happen very soon. In Minnesota, our puppet governor Mark Dayton is already talking about a 4 billion tax hike. He is yet another politician tied to the apron strings of his master. The Wisconsin governor Scott Walker is actually doing good for his state. And the democratic senators that refuse to show up, should be thrown in jail for not doing their job. I would love to have their job, just to bad I don't have the money, nor the connections to do so.

That's the point, keep us where we are at. Can't go to far without gas. They are controlling our movements, behaviors, etc.. with the price of gas.

I'm just curious, because I here this all the time. In the UK, is commuting a long distance the norm? In my area of America, I travel 65 miles a day, for example.

I think the UK is set up like a big city, and you really don't need to drive as much as you would here in the states. But, that will soon change once more communist living becomes available.

You know? Communist living the houses, town homes, and apartments that are so close together you could wash your neighbors back in his shower? Those are the ones with no yards, you don't really OWN it if your part of their organization. It's a shame.

some days i do a round trip of 114 miles but my daily average is around the 50 mile mark and its a killer on the pocket ,i have a landrover i use for the shorter runs and run that on a mix of veg oil and diesel ,,but veg oil even at the cash and carry has gone up in price ,,and on longer runs i use the car a petrol no so great to the gallon but more comfort on a longer journey,, also public transport is expensive and rubbish were treated like idiots in the uk

[Lolwtf Profile]

Wow, that's more mileage than what I thought a regular Uk driver would go through in a day. My estimate was wayyyyy off. I was thinking like 15-30 miles tops round trip.

The hole oil industry is corrupt. In the last few years, we have seen the price per barrel drop and the first thing oil companies do is slow refinement of gasoline to keep their profits at a level they enjoy, it's a criminal enterprise.
