Gas costs
« on: August 10, 2005, 09:55:34 pm »
A growing problem in this world is the cost of gasoline. The raise of gas prices is affecting people in more ways than one. Not only does it cost more to drive your car, but it also costs more to get delivery service. Costs more to send mail, garbage pick up costs more, bus fares cost more, food costs more, airline tickets cost more, computers cost more, EVERYTHING costs more because of rasing gas prices. What do you think should be done to combat this? Drill for more oil? Or maybe find alternitve engery sources and find ways to utlize them? Post your opinions.

In order to make it through the world one needs some insanity.

I mean, you cannot really complain about gas prices in the US, considering the prices in Europe are like 3 times that. It's our own fault for the prices....so i dunno...find another engery source maybe? But then all cars would have to convert and it would be too much of a hassle.

Solar energy. It would probably work.
Mr. Krabs: Do you smell it..that smell...a kind of smelly smell...a smelly smell that smells smelly. Anchovies.
Squidward: What?
Mr. Krabs: ANCHOVIES!
Anchovies: MEEP, MEEP, MEEP.

I probably won't be on here too much being in college and all. I will try to pop on every once in a while though to share my thoughts.

Just last week it was $2.02 over here and now it's $2.21! When I work over at the gas station for a little bit, people are complaining left and right about gas prices going up and not stopping.

I believe that the gas will go back down but it'll happen when everyone is back in school in the US.

Darn straight. Let's jack the prices way up on the food for Arabic countries, then maybe they'll sell us gas for cheaper.

We can also drill the tundra.
