I paid $2.32 yesterday! I suggest buying into the stock market dip and selling just before Christmas.

If falling gas prices are the worst for America, then the best, Morford goes on to say, would be to raise gas taxes by $6 a gallon and dedicate all of the revenue to (boondoggles)

Just like Europe...

One thing for sure, it crushes Alberta. Any lower and the Keystone pipeline might be pumping mountain air down south.

Despite all its warts, it looks like a Republican Congress is going to pull Obola’s bony rear outta the sling just like it did Clintoon’s.

Articles like this demonstrate just how out of touch liberals are. Despite the myths, they know or care nothing for the Little People they claim to represent.

This is why the American people are fortunate to have a Republican Congress. If the Democrats had control, they would have taxed gas in this manner as their first order of business.

Do they still pay Morford to write his idiocy?

Haven’t seen one of his bowel movements passed-off as journalism in a long time.

I never thought I’d again see bargain basement prices for gas. LOL! The lowest I’ve seen in the past couple of weeks in Reno is $2.71. So some brilliant forward thinker wrote a letter to the editor in yesterday’s reno gazette urninal and said now that the prices are down over a dollar/gal, it would be a good time to raise the NV gasoline tax from 33 cents per gallon to 48 cents per gallon. Of course with a provision that if the price rises to a certain level (which it will) the additional 15 cents would be rescinded. Uh, no thanks asshat. Does anyone really think that once they get their paws on an extra 15 cents/gal they would give it up? Some on fixed income or making less than the $15/hr that some folks demand kinda like the current prices.

"...Amazon that offer free shipping."

Inference being that shippers charge less? Complete BS.

The teeming masses are out spewing evil carbon.
Liberals are troubled....

Personal mobility is the enemy of the state.

I guess one of the few upsides of putting the RINOS back in charge is that if Reid and Pelosi were still running the show this would actually happen.

A left-coast writer named Mark Morford thinks...

Well, there's your problem right there!

Quit thinking, you liberal, progressive dumbass!

Every time you fools "think", we end up with crap like Obamacare, climate change bullshit, welfare queens, over-reaching government largesse...etc, etc.

Quit thinking and leave it up to the people that wear the big-boy pants...not the silly little pajama-boy onsies.

Now get out...and take Al Sharpton with you.

Gas prices rise to $1.89 in 2008 - “Blame Bush and his oil buddies!”

Gas prices drop to $2.51 in 2014 - “Thank you, Obama, our Dear Leader and Messiah!”

When will these people learn about supply and demand?

Low prices mean more people will use the product and they will sell more.
High prices means people will have to pay more and thus will use less.
Either way they still make money.

I saw gas for $2.19 yesterday!!

It’s a huge tax break for Americans. Each penny drop is a billion dollar infusion into the economy.

Cheap gasoline is power to the people. More is better.

Why are falling prices bad? Lower prices are good for people and their pocketbooks. What makes higher prices good? That is pure economic ignorance.

$2.89 in San Diego is a miracle.

$2.23 in Sioux Falls, SD yesterday, but in Minneapolis gasoline is 20-30 cents per gallon more... I’m betting it is the difference in gas tax.

The other really good news about lower oil/gas prices besides giving the average American more disposable income. The lower oil prices are doing to the thugs of the world with a lot of cheap oil on hand.

The good news is the Opecker Princes, South America Opeckers and Putin are getting kicked below the belt each day, when the price of oil drops again and again.

The price oil dropped even more while we were eating our turkey and dressing.

The Iranian thugs just yesterday were whining openingly about the low oil prices.

The thing to realize is that these environmentalists would hate gas and cars even if someone invented a fuel that was harmless and free.

They would still decry all the resources being used in their manufacture.

They would still complain about the roads changing the natural environment.

Pollution is just an excuse.

What they really hate is that as it stands just any old schmuck can get in a car and drive 1200 miles to wherever they wish without clearing it with somebody important first.

They hate freedom.
