People keep saying that high gas prices will be the end of Obama. It absolutely will not be. If we’re not in a war, with our liberties suspended, then watch for the “gas stamps” (or equivalent) to come out soon. Mark my words, it’s all part of the plan. The plan is to give all power, means and resources to those who will support the “establishment” and criminalize and pillage everyone else. Nothing new about it.
We don’t need an alternative fuel, we need an alternative President.
we got to get these maggot sucking, belly crawling dung eaters out of DC and in a cell
Wasn’t Obama looking for a new campaign slogan?
“We’re not interested in lowering gas prices”
He should run with it.
The government, state and federal, have ZERO interest in lowering the price of oil. The higher the cost at the pump, the more money the government rakes in from the taxes on a gallon of fuel.
This is sickening. It is nothing but a personal agenda by Chu fostered by obastard. Nothing but treachery, fraud and self-interest... if you dig down you will most likely find direct benefit to Chu and obsstard throughout the whole scam.
“But is the overall goal to get our price” of gasoline down, asked Nunnelee.
“No, the overall goal is to decrease our dependency on oil, to build and strengthen our economy,” Chu replied. “We think that if you consider all these energy policies, including energy efficiency, we think that we can go a long way to becoming less dependent on oil and [diversifying] our supply and we’ll help the American economy and the American consumers.”
This agenda by the administration is driven by ideology not necessity. Furthermore, the alternatives have been shown to be uneconomic. The economic ignorance of this administration is further illustrated by their insistence that replacement of a superior economic alternative by one that is vastly more expensive and raises the cost of virtually everything somehow makes the U.S. more competitive? Horseshit.
We have never found it expedient to replace an existing product without good economic or technical reasons... there are no such reasons to force abandoning oil. The only reason this administration has is unavowed... control and a econut agenda and feathering their own wealth.
And I guess those batteries come fully charged and never run low. And as soon as the magic batteries are invented they appear in your magically converted to electric cars.
The heck with drilling for oil, building power plants, expanding coal and nuclear use, Magic friggin batteries are coming to save us!
This country cannot afford $5 gasoline. The whole house of cards will come down again, before the election, emergency measures.
The Obama administration won’t have to worry about gas prices after November because the will be sent out of town by rail.
There is more than one way to skin a cat. The national average price for a gallon of CNG is $.85 cents a gallon. This means if gas is currently at $3.69 a gallon, you are saving at $2.84 a gallon just by owning a CNG car. That can quickly add up to huge savings! On average, owning a natural gas vehicle can save you from $3,000-$5,000 dollars a year on fuel expenses.
