Water is the most abundant resource on Earth...I don't see how you can charge somebody that much for it

[Diets17]

Its a good thing I really dont NEED any of those things, at least not right now. I NEED gas though, just like everyone else. haha

yeah i don't know why water is so expensive cause we will never run out [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

I wouldn't say that to soon. According to the new precip. totals we may be in for a long summer in some areas. Possible droughts. No rainfall= No water.
I don't take to many things for granted anymore.
I still wonder when any one from the government is gonna, start raising a fuss about fuel cost.
Have you noticed the public has. Radio stations are running the lowest price ads.
Yet our government has yet to say we have a problem?????

fresh water is less plentiful than you think. Salt water covers most of the earth but fresh water is a very small % .

In my opinion the government won't do anything until the SUV industry starts losing money because of the high gas prices. Once the SUV makers put pressure on the government to lower the prices then we will probably see a change. It seems like the government only listens to those who donate the most money to their parties campaign fund.

Congress is looking into extending day light savings time due to the energy problems......

here's a thought why the H#LL did they not have this the whole time, they estimate that Americans will use 10000 less barrels of fuel a day if they extend it out until the end of November and start it at the end of March.

That makes no sense. How is extending daylight savings time going to help the economy? I could care less if they extend it or not.
