who know what anyone would do in any scenario unless they were actually faced with it. Right now i would say i wouldnt keep ripping people off i think i would have a bit more of a conscience. as for hybrids i think they are ugly and over priced. i take the bus to work as it is but still spending $240 a month just to go to work dosnt work for me either. and buying oil stock HAH! you know how expensive they would be. i have an idea lets legalize pot! having huge fields of marijuana we can use them to make bio diesel that would make me happy!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

It sounds like you may have a soul. So you would never be the CEO of a major oil company.

Although I think part of the big picture is missed. They don't just sell gas for 3 bucks a gallon, make hand fulls of money and call it a day. They do work on finding more oil and working on ideas for future energy. Do you think they plan to pack it in once the oil runs out? They are in it to make money, they have tons of it, and plan to continue. They will run is to the limits on oil then switch to something else.

Hell maybe then it will be clean and reusable *shrug*

people will still have to drive to work and make that money to buy them buds.

not if it's legal, just grow your own //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Credit cards is why this county is in so much debt. The % on them is crazy.

the only reason gas is high is cuz bush is allowing it since he gets a %. 11-15 dollars is outrages. there is no need for it to be that high. If it was that high i wouldn't be able to take my girlfriend out on dates as much as i can now. if you work far away from home you wouldn't be able to go to work then come back home. you would end up using your entire pay check on gas. There is alot of things you have to consider with gas that high, what if you lost your job.

George Carlin's Solution to Save GasolineBush wants us to cut the amount of gas we use..... The best way to stop using so much gas is to deport 11 million illegal immigrants!

That would be 11 million less people using our gas. The price of gas would come down.....

Bring our troops home from Iraq to guard the Border....

When they catch an illegal immigrant crossing the border, hand him a canteen, rifle and some ammo and ship him to Iraq .

Tell him if he wants to come to America then he must serve a tour in the military.... .

Give him a soldier's pay while he's there and tax him on it.....

After his tour, he will be allowed to become a citizen since he defended this country..... .

He will also be registered to be taxed and be a legal patriot..... .

This option will probably deter illegal immigration and provide a solution for the troops in Iraq and the aliens trying to make a better life for themselves.. ....

If they refuse to serve, ship them to Iraq anyway, without the canteen, rifle or ammo.....

Problem solved.....

11 million illegal immigrant drivers my ***. There are always about 22.5 Mexicans in a truck doing 80 down the interstate. So I guess that's about 488,888.89 actual illegal immigrant drivers.

I think its good that gas costs so much money. I honestly would like to see $11 or $12 a gallon! Are you with me?!

To be honest with you, I am totally with you.
This will be the only way that my argument on dependency VS. fule efficiency would be realized.

SO many think I have lost my mind when I tell them they still have alternatives. Sure, riding a bike to a local job seems pathetic, but it is still a choice to the alternative.

If gas got to the level you indicated in OP, then a job at $10/hr that can one can ride a bike to would seem as a more viable option.

I support your thought. I think it would bring us back to more of a sense of community. Noting like 2nd cousins getting married because the next town is too far way.

Hopefully we have more government grants and other funding going to alternative fuel sources. Here's a cool idea...
