Yep, those are fixed by the government...And let's not forget that wealthy farmers are reaping record profits and Congress passed another record farm bill giving subsidies to wealthy farmers. I'm sure our illustrious elected representatives will fix this mess soon....
The democrats eh? are you sure it's not those stinkin commies. It couldn't have anything to do with Bush and his cabinet being linked to oil men now could it? Or maybe that the senate minority will not allow a democrat bill to pass. Naw, couldn't be that.
Do some research, Med. Go back into the congressional record to see which party has presented bills to free us from our dependency on foreign oil, and which party has squelched the idea.
Oh I've noticed Vi, and it is your republican assholes in congress and the president and his cronies that are responsible. It's just like you to try and shove this off on the democrats, good try, but no cigar. I'm surprised with all your money that you should be concerned at all. Whats 5-10 bucks a gallon to you, small change. Remember when Bush took office, Gas was 1.20 a gallon. He's trippled it ++!
If hydrogen technology gets mainstream in the near present future gas prices are going to plummet! Who is going to paying 4 dollars a gallon when you can you can go 30 times the distance for the same 4 dollars from hydrogen?
I am curious on how you believe its the republican's fault. Your only reasoning is that Bush made his money from off shore oil refineries, but what has he done to make the gas prices high? You believe its his fault but I want to know exactly, on paper, what he has done to put us in the situation we are in, please.
I'm not saying it was that Bush called up the oil companies and said, look, now that I'm in, go for it, But it wouldn't surprise me in the least. It is well documented that Bush and his cronies have had oil interests for years. If A+B=C, then this simple formula should make one want to look deeper into this whole white house shenanigans including the price of oil. I say there is a direct link, it just hasn't been exposed yet. Wait a while and youi'll know. I'm also not saying that Democrats aren't complicent in this, but since it was a repuke controlled everything untill '06' and a repuke senate that holds every bill to under the 60 votes needed to pass anything, I think this falls squarely on the shoulders of the republicans. 1.20 a gallon before Bush, 4.00 after, what say you? Believe me, it would take someone way better positioned than me to prove this theory, but being a simple man, it sounds pretty factual.
No, your wrong. They sell kits that you can but to retrofit your current car into an hydrogen-gas hybrid. You can run hydrogen into an internal combustion engine no problems. You do NOT need a fuel cell. The technology is here but being keep suppressed. The current production cars could use pretty much the same ICE technology except integrate the hydrogen hybrid design into the stock design of the vehicle. It would not take much more equipment or money. The technology is here.
Well I believe its a collaboration of reasons. You know the chinese are adding 5 million cars a year to their population? They are definitely a global market contender now. Also, the world is basically at maximum capacity for producing oil, meaning, we cannot produce more barrels a day than what we are doing. So that oil is at a set amount now and it is being fought for by the entire world. Its a clichè but its true, supply and demand.
In my opinion BUSH IS GUILTY UNTIL PROVEN INNOCENT! FOCK HIM, WHO IS HE TO TAKE OUR LIBERTIES AWAY.
Thats a very disappointing mentality, We. So what you basically said it is Bush's fault no matter what, despite there being no evidence. That is backwards mentality and honestly juvenile.In my opinion BUSH IS GUILTY UNTIL PROVEN INNOCENT! FOCK HIM, WHO IS HE TO TAKE OUR LIBERTIES AWAY.
Guilty until proven innocent I say!!!
I just listed why gas is this high. Over the last 7 years, China is much more mobile, the world has reached its maximum capacity, and liberals won't let us drill. Coincidence that Bush was in office during this time? Yes. It just so happened that China has caught up with the rest of the world, and believe me after Bush is gone, they will continue to put more cars in their streets.
I guess if I were a Bush bandit like you, I'd be in denial also!
