Thread: Gas Prices for 2011

Tweet

I'm watch TV tonight and I saw Brian Williams report on price hikes across the US.Now this is nation wide news broadcast.He follows this report with the reason is the unrest in Libya.That country only provides 2% of the worlds oil and it is mostly for Europe.

Now if a old guy like me knows that.........why the hell doesn't he understand that.Why does the oil that mostly goes to Europe effect your pricing.Yeah-yeah,shortage of supply by 2%.2% man.

I am baffled by the fact we seem to accept illogical reasons for this pricing."It's kind of like well the gas price went up and now we gots to go by a hybird".Hey wait a minute,ant that like giving up before putting up a fight??.Maybe guys like me aren't in that mind frame anymore.

Thing is........if someone is going to "try" to stick in my butt......They better have a better reason than B.S.

All the system operates on the simplistic thought that if only one thing happens........we are going to run out of oil and then the price goes up.Kind of like the oil spill the last time.Oh no,oh no.......chineese fire drill.Question should have been how much did that platform produce of the world total supply.Not much huh.

Beyond my control??.Sure is alone.We've lost our elected officials.But when it seems we have lost our news broadcasts and reporting too,I think it is time to start laying the first bricks for a rebuild.Economic terrorism is certainly a very good reason to take up arms.

Think about how we got here.Detached and accepting every increase.Passive all along the way.No consequences to the way things are going.Recent reports are when the price gets to $4.00 people are more reluctant to purchase gas.$4.00????.Say What???.Soooooo,we have set a limit????.Yrs ago,well not really yrs ago,my limit was $2.99.What the hell??.

And we just continue to take it and take it some more.I remember studying while in school about the gas rations during WW II.You know,I would rather have that at a reasonable price than continuing the way we are.Tell some of these countries that their biggest customer isn't buying anymore.

Libya...We got the same excuse....Today,91 octane...$2.16/litre,,,95 octane,,$2.22/litre,,,diesel,,$1.56/litre...
Please tune in for tomorrows screwing,,ahh,price adjustment..
