Sick Of High Prices...

I'll Bet, you are getting sick of paiding
High gas prices at pump,I think we should make environmentalists pay half of our cost of our gas's prices
paiding at the pump and even Opec company should paid half our gas prices to knock
down a discount for all American people that go to work each day.
I prefer alot people are suffering because this crap and I think we should expand our oil refineries
and oil rigs through out the Gulf of Mexico, New Orleans should become a big oil export of a big ship port.
I think, we should write our congressmen e-mailed each state throughout the whole United States and tell him this idea,You should make the environmentalists paid half our cost of our gas prices at the pump..
Thanks,
American highlander

I have a better idea. Make quads street legal. I could get where I'm going much faster, and it would be far lest costly in gas.

A typical robotic lawn mower requires the user to set up a border wire around the lawn that defines the area to be mowed.

You know what I saw that was almost funny, did you know that Willie Nelson has created his own fuel and sells in a place in Texas, called Carl's Corner. He calls it "Willie Nelson's Bio-Fuel". It's a diesel fuel and truckers swear by it. Now what I find interesting if Willie Nelson, a country singer, can produce this type of fuel, then why can't all the rocket scientist in this country produce a similar product. Perhaps they just make more money robbing us at the pump.
One last comment, I like the advertisements you see for these vehicles that run of alcohol(ie, ethanol), I have as of yet seen a gas station selling this, have you? So what's the since.
Also hear told that we produce enough fuel for our intake out of Alaska, but that is all shipped directly to Japan, yea that makes since.
Have a great day....

I am setting up my truck to run on WVO (watse vegtable oil). Evently I will make my own biodiesel & only own diesel vehicals.
I have seen E85 for sale. It is mostly in states that produce alot of corn. It has been for sale for years at gas stations.
One reason I have heard that the oil is shipped to Japan is that is is cheaper. I don't know if that is true I have not looked it up.
As far as blaming the tree huggers. They are just a scape goat. They do hinder things but it is more the goverments fault then theirs. If you are mad about gas prices look up the taxes you pay par gal. of gas. If that does not make you mad I don't know what will. The Gov. makes more on gas than any one.

Bet, you are getting sick of paiding
I prefer alot people are suffering because this crap and I think we should expand our oil refineries
think we should write our congressmen e-mailed each state throughout the whole US and tell him this idea should make the environmentalists paid half our cost of our gas prices at the pump
paiding at the pump and even Opec company should paid half our gas prices to knock
down a discount for American people.
No offence to the poster but.... your vocabulary skills need adjusting Mr. America. This is the funniest post I have ever read.

Come on man... Its the same way it sounds when you type it.. You wouldnt say " I paided twenty dollars at the gas station. " You would say " I paid twenty dollars at the gas station. " Or, " I got paid friday." Or use this for an example. " How much did you pay for your atv?"

I know you were being sarcastic, but the correct way to say the sentence above would be : " I paid $5,000 for my Rrincon."
Also, throwing in comma's randomly doesnt make the sentence any more correct than misspelling a word.
Findley should be Finally. Final meaning the last.

Lets see.. we have a oil man in office thats running the country. There is the problem, you dont really think he cares about the price of gas and how others suffer do you? He making money off it too.
As for the other fuel alternatives, there have been plenty other things found to replace oil for fuel. The problem is the goverment buys them out and hides the ideas. Money makes the world go round folks and unfortunately oil has made alot of people and companies alot of money and just think how much money would be lost by all the monopolies of the world if oil wasnt used as a main fuel source anymore.

Well, I get the point what you're saying about that and we need make the environmentalists pay back what they did to us, because they should throw off all the oil grades for each city and our gas prices be alot lower because of this. Because why we should let the environmentalists pay our high gas prices to have a half discount % knock off prices so American people will be happy to paid lower cost of gas, so the environmentalists will go out of business one day, the way they keep there environment issues from drilling the Gulf of Mexico and sometimes they draw too many lines between all people around world.
I think,
Opec company should knock down high gas prices
50% of cost of price you are paying for at the pump at every Sundays,
I think we should have a Sunday discount deal every Sunday when people go out to eat.
See what I'm coming from on this issue, then you understand what I'm saying!!!

How do you figure the president is making money on high gas prices?!?!?!
Hmm... lets see, he owned a coupple of oil rigs years ago. Wow, so that entitles him to money? Before you even turn around and start on the vice president and all that haliburton stuff, he sold his stock in the company years before he even ran with bush and they made more money in the clinton years than now. So how is the president and the vice president making money? Do you know who is really making the money? The the middle eastern countries. Espically saudi arabia. They know we will pay whatever they charge per barrel just because we have too much of a dependence on foriegn oil! But thats our only option because we cant drill in alaska because the mushy tree hugging libs in congress think we might hurt a fish or mabye a polar bear might have to relocate. So we are basically in a vicious circle. Its not the president that is causing the high prices. Although insead of actually taking the time to do a little bit of research and really finding the problem, people just blame the president for eveything that goes wrong just because its easier that way. So if your gonna moan and gripe about our prices, do a little research before you point fingers. BTW, stvbolt, get off americans back. He made a slight spelling error.

Easy there tiger, I wasnt pointing fingers at anybody but I still stand by what I said. By the way I never mentioned a thing about the vice president. The problem really boils down to getting away from oil to produce fuels. Like I said though too many people would lose too much money to switch over to a alternative and the superpowers around the world wont let that happen.

actually , the prez didnt own any oil rigs. He was appointed ceo or cfo of a small oil company and nearly ruined it.Conversly, vice prez cheney did not sell his stocks with haliburton and makes a very healthy living in lew of this(this can be verified by checking there tax returns from this past year, which is considered public record and was released publicly about two or three months ago.Ultimately u.s. companies are the ones who make the lions share of the profits ,because they are the ones who refine and distribute.That being said, the price of a barrel of gas is based on the u.s. dollar(not the euro dollar,not a rubel,not the yen)so, when the dollar is valued less than other international currency , oil producing nations make...less!Thus the price per barrel increases to make the difference.
In this particular instance the president has very little control of gas prices.The only thing you can blame him for is not requiring the big three automakers to stick to previous government requirements to make more fuel efficent cars and trucks.Also a false statement to say that environmentalists are the only ones at work not letting drilling go on in alaska.The fact of the matter is the exploration has been done and the oil that is there is not enough to justify the expence of setting up shop for most oil companies, not to mention its not the long term answer to our national fuel needs and dependence on foreign oil.They still have the whole gulf of mexico, pacific ocean drilling sights as well as the existing oil rigs in and off of alaska. Dont let anyone fool you, the oil companies will drag there feet looking for fossil fuel alternatives, just to suck up more record profits.Do I blame the government for this? Only for not looking out for the backbone of this country........THE WORKING MAN!

The whole issue is supply and demand....that's it. We need it and they know it. You will pay whatever they charge for it and that's that!!!
And I still am amazed at the Americanhighlanders writting skills......I hope it's just a joke.
If not then no wonder we are in the shape we are in.

Look, at the gulf of mexcio there is plenty oil there,
i heard last month on yahoo news something they are putting oil
rigs every 5years drilling the gulf..
Look at bill nelson(florida Sen) he's a environmentalists looney tick he
wants to stop the drilling in gulf of mexcio but he didn't pass voted last month with capital hill .
But,I recently read that last month on the Yahoo news about Congress passing the votes to drill oil in the Gulf Mexico.
I know our presdent and jeb bush is pushing harder to
put more oil rigs in gulf and more suppyies to help cut cost of gas,
i know they been trying for years to pass vote to drill gulf of mexcio for
oil supply port for main resource of energy to fuel our vehicles.
