![]() It's all good, pisser. You know why they call it fair market value? Because it's the price that people are willing to pay. Don't blame politics, blame your fellow Californians for having such deep pockets that they don't mind being gouged.
I think I paid $2.43 per gallon for my last tank of gas a couple weeks ago. Denver residents are such tight wads that they won't pay much more than $2.60 per gallon for gas, but maybe we're just a bunch of spoiled brats. ![]() You know, people used to work where they lived, they didn't have to commute for two hours every day. In fact that's why cities exist in the first place, so people don't have to travel half their waking life to do business. But now the only people who actually live in the cities are too poor to do business with, and every one else lives in the suburbs. If you're looking for the cause of high gas prices, that's it right there. |

It's just a big conspiracy by the rich to fuck over the middle class and poor. Same old shit. |

![]() Yeah - it really must suck living in a country which has some of the lowest gas prices in the world. Drives me crazy when I hear the US News channels complain their gas prices are so high. I will trade you prices any day of the week.

![]() last time there was a free market in oil the stuff was a nickle a barrel. i think the cartels have more to do with high prices than anything else.

America isn't wimpy, it's jaded. And don't assume that just 'cause you're paying more that someone else is richer for it. |

![]() Why don't you change your username to "whiner"?
The CEO of Chevron is just laughing at the whining crybaby bawling his head off everytime gasoline prices go up. The stockholders are enjoying the bulk of the profits. |

If the price didn't go up then the supply would run out and then you'd really bawl. When are you going to get used to it? I think you problem begins here:http://www.p2p-zone.com/underground/...5&postcount=12 Quote:

In the U.S. there are still plenty of people wasting gasoline who need to be encouraged to change their ways. I do believe there are fewer people driving past my house than in the past and I like it that way. I'm certainly driving and riding less; $12.25 just to fill my motorcycle tank. I skipped my ritual springtime dayride this year and started spending more time on my mountain bike; 17 miles yesterday. I've been waiting for the diesel pickup I ordered and hoping I get it before GM goes out of business. Then I'll get a second heating oil tank and be ready for any shortages of diesel fuel. Intelligent people will learn how to cope, idiots will just bitch and moan. |

![]() Yeah, your whining and bawling about gas prices for the last 2 years has really done something; it's entertained me and shown everyone what a pathetic crybaby you are.
...and also how you see everything in terms of anal sex. |
