We own Irac and their oil plus a war debt from Quway(?), yet we still pay what OPEC wants! What is wrong with this picture? Inappropriate?

We can fix that.Don't drive if you can help it. Then they won't get more money. It's a cat and mouse game. Inappropriate?

I got gas one day it was $3.69 and when I came back thru an hour and a half later it was $3.59. That tells me that they pretty much can charge what they want to charge. I'm sure gas prices do not go down several times a day for them. It's all a game to see how much money they can make. Inappropriate?

Then maybe stores and elec. comp. will lower thier stuff and we can afford to live again without having to decide gas , groceries or bills. Inappropriate?

I live in FL and only found out through a friend that lives in Martinez, that there wasn't any gas. I also know that we're not the only ones suffering. My family in Germany pays the equivalent of TWICE the price for a gallon of gas.......I guess it could still get worse. And you know that the US is being laughed at by all the countries sitting on the oil. They're just waiting to kick us again while we're already down......... Inappropriate?

Yeah, I'm voting Democrat! I love being miserable and they seem to be able to insure misery with their "do goodin ways". We can't drill, we can't build, we can't do anything that might harm the snail darter or spotted owl. Get Pelosi and that bunch out of Washington. Inappropriate?

But the "sheep to the slaughter" never slowed. What will it take to stop the complaining as your are filling your tanks and revolt. When is enough going to be enough? $8 a gal. $10 a gal. $20...?? If all your income went in your gas tank and everyday bills, which increase as gas increases, and no food on your table, would that get your attention? They do it because we let them by buying their products. Inappropriate?

We import over 60% of our oil, most of which comes from the Middle East. Get use to high gas prices. Alot of world events and even natural disasters impact the flow of oil to the U.S. Not to mention the global depletion of oil in the years to come. Inappropriate?

I am distraught at our Governments greedy underhanded way of doing business. The rich will continue to get richer as long as our government continues to be run in this manner. It doesn't matter who is President, it will not change a thing. Big business runs our country and it's leaders... When gas prices do finally drop, everything else will stay high priced. Fact of Life.

Complaining about it will not make it any better. If you think this is bad now, wait five years down the road. This is our fault that we use more oil/gas than any other country in the world. We simply take everything for granted. All you can do now is conserve every way possible. Use double coupons if needed.

Was it so we could give it back through the purchasing of gas because the way I see it that is what is happening!
