It still baffles me how un-self-reliant people seem to be these days. YOU control your gas usage, YOU have the power to resolve the issue of high and rising gas prices yourself. Complaining about it on the Internet does nothing to fix the problem you have.

But what about the pure power that my 1999 V6 family sedan puts out?! There's just no replacing that.......

I find that hard to believe.

What is the average amount of miles travelled per day for US workers ??

In Toronto for premium gas we're paying about $5.45 a gallon without doing currency conversions, which are about equal right now after bank fees.

I filled mine up last night, I try not to look at how much anymore

I think it was $4.49 for premium

before Obama took office it was $1.68 on average, but with 85 billion being printed up each month at the delight of the stock market, makes our buying power a lot less

Hmmm weird I remember it being about $3/ +/- gallon with Bush..

I live in one of the countries where gas is most expensive. Actually we're #3 behind England & Israel.

I get pissed everytime I think of this.

It's because as the election was near, the oil companies suddenly produced a lot of extra refined oil driving the price down for a few months before it went back to $3/gal.

The right wing blow hards have memories shorter than a midget dick. They then attempt spread the ignorance as if they are somehow actually right.

Why do you always turn everything into "Obama is bad".

You cherry pick your stats, and twist the facts around badly.

In 2004 the national average for gas was about $2. A year later in 2005 it had jumped up to $3.05 (national average). In 2008 we had the highest national gas price ever recorded - $4.12.

But I am guessing that you weren't complaining about Bush when the national average of gas was $4.12 were you? Of course not.

In Vegas, it's still only about $3.50

Yeah when I filled up my mini bike when Nixon was president I paid about $0.45 a gallon.

Damn Bush wars in Iraq and having wars without paying for them or even getting some of the proceeds from the oil.

As usual your statements are RETARDED.

Notice how our gas prices in the USA are the lowest. What the fuck does "printing money" and currency devaluation have to do what China is willing to pay which pushes up the prices for all markets? If our currency was so devalued in the world market we would be paying more than others not less for a global commodity.


Kind of blew your whole mindless FOX news dribble didn't it?

Stop drinking and buy a clue.

BSleazy 07-29-2013 12:50 PM

Same here in Michigan. Paid $3.69 yesterday.

Ride a bicycle, get rid of giant SUV, etc. In the scheme of things gas in the US is insanely cheap and a small increase in the price (something that happens nearly every summer) isn't really going to effect the average consumer. That is if the average consumer actually did something about it versus just complain

I have a VW and that bitch sucks the fuck outa some gas.
