ORIGINAL: HummBob True in some aspects Shorty, But I'd rather have the EXTRA $$$ I spend on gas for other things. At least in TRUE CAPITALISM, you have a CHOICE. If you don't want to spend "X" for WHATEVER, you have the ability to find it elsewhere and possibly for a better price. Not so with the OIL COMPANIES!!(Collusion??) The thing that pisses me off is that the oil companies are making BILLIONS/year in PROFIT. I mean AFTER they pay their execs the HUGE salaries. After paying the HUGE salaries to the oil workers etc. They still manage to PROFIT in the BILLIONS!!!! Just SUK to get SCREWED and know there is JACK SH!T you can do about it!![:@] i'm certainly not against extra $$ in my pocket, but the boycotts and whining do nothing. i certainly don't have a solution, which is the main reason i don't complain. i need to drive, and to do that i need gas. i'm at the mercy of the marketplace, as is everyone else. if we drove less, gas would just go up so big oil could make the same profits. i'm too old, fat and lazy to start riding a bike. . . . . .[:@] i did fillup for under $10 the other day though, with less than a gallon in the tank. gotta love the small sportster tanks . . . . . .[:D]
