$2.29

[greencrest1272]

I dont give a damn if Ted Kennedy is president, if he could get gas prices down to about $1.50, I would support him.

By the way, Im sure Bush has a little red button in his office and when his checking account gets below $10,000,000 he can just push it and make gas prices soar and fill his account up. Give it a break man.

what pisses me off about the gas situation is the fact that the people who argue most of the time are driving the most non fuel efficient vehicles

I got a quick question to everyone, including myself. why do we continue to bitch about gas prices? Regardless of much it goes up to we are still going to buy it.

[RaiderWahoo0105]

Because people believe that to an extent something can be done about gas prices.
Practically that amounts to no more than about 30 cents leeway, granted this would help a lot of people's budgets (including mine), but you're right this doesn't warrant crying like people do.
Like I said in a previous posting, U.S. gas prices have been kept artificially "low" for over a century, so we Americans whine a whole lot more than Europeans do for a given price increase because we depend on it so much. It's human nature to voice content when something you've depended on suddenly changes.

Just face the facts that we are going to pay over $2 a gallon, so deal with it.

-Okay you obviously can't read. I essentially said this exact same message, i.e. for people to stop whining.

That wasnt directed towards you, but whatever man. Keep posting, it really shows your IQ. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

If you are going to make a statement like you did, standard English dictates that you list a subject to whom you are directing your statement.
Especially since you responded directly off of my previous statement.

I'm sorry for making an uninformed assessment about your reading skills; it rather should have been made about grammar, but it's a given in online forums grammar will suck.

And you know nothing about my i.q. or who I am.
