  We cant blame it on Bush, remember we have a Democratic house.  But something needs to be done about fuel cost in Florida most of it is TAX.

Ive been saying that all along. Over the 4th July holiday EVERYONE that drives for a living should shut down take a vacation for the whole week.It will take that long to have any effect on supplies.

Just like the person who posted the video about the Alaskas oil reserves....Government is keeping the Rich Richer.They could care less about the middle class.Were a dying breed.If the Fuel/gas goes back to $2 a gallon there loosing a 50% tax base.Why should they care about us.

I FUUUUUUUUUUUING HATE POLITICS!

Get er done truckers i wish it the TRUTH!

You gotta be kidding right. The house really doesn't have anything to do with oil prices are you guys ever going to wake up. Bushes first couple of weeks in office gave oil companies there largest tax cut ever, saving them 100 of millions. I'm sure Bush and Cheney are cashing in there oil stocks there last couple of months in office.  Wink

Actually when i was talking to the drivers on the CB radio i could have sworn they said April 3rd. But it needs to be for more than just one day... think of it if they strike for one day the next days profit will be double if not triple. if they strike for like 3 or 4 days at the least..... then it will make a big impact...

Instead of every one saying how great it would be for the truckers to go on strike and show every one that we won't stand for the high prices of fuel any more DO SOMETHING  Strike with them.Support them Do NOT drive or buy any fuel while their on strike.

My brother drives and said that the ones running were gonna drive 55mph. I laughed and told him that there ain't none of them gonna drive 55 on the interstate when they can drive 70. Especially when they get paid by the mile. I also told him that 55 was not gonna do nothing but make the oil companies laugh at this so called, unorganized strike.  Grin Grin Grin

there is not enough independent truck drivers left to make a difference. corperations own most of the trucks on the road so now when cost of fuel goes up they jack their price up to match so guess who it cost more we pay more both ways. it will be up to america to do something about it and that will never happen i bought a xr650 to drive to work I only drive my truck when it rains. it ant much help to everybody else but it helps my pocket

OK I have a question (this will prove how uneducated I am)  when we (US) buy oil from over seas, doesn't the US have an import tax based on a % (for example 1%) of the price for a barrel go to the US. (kinda like tax dollars)  If so my thoughts are simply this 1% of $50 or 1% of $100 the US gets.  They (US) would never want the prices that overseas companies go down because they would lose BILLIONS in taxes. I think they (US) would rather have tax money than have a company or companies drill, pull, refine, produce our own oil,  and create thousands of jobs for US citizens. (and lower our gas prices)

Am I way off base here?Huh

Here is the the best part. The EPA says we can't drill on the Alaska pipeline cause of Caribou. Screw the Caribou and turn them all into jerky. Her comes the true best though. There is enough oil currently 46 miles off the coast of Key West to solely supply the US for 16 years. THe EPA won't let America drill there meanwhile China and Mexico are drilling.

So the Chinese drill our oil that the EPA won't let us
Then we in import a chunk of oil back from China

So we can't drill for the environments sake, but others can and then we will be buying off of them?

Sound bass akwards to anyone?
