Check your facts, and then find new sources for your information.\nOPEC determines oil prices.\nIn 1973 they did it creating our first 'gas crisis' in retaliation for our involvment in and equipping of Isreal for their war with Egypt.\nAs long as the liberal qwacks keep preventing drilling in Alaska, we'll have a shortage.\nUntil GAS COMPANIES and CAR MANUFACTURES stop preventing alternative fuel sources.\nAnd until idiots like you stop making up phony questions.

Bush started this game and Bush really don't like losing!\nBecause he is not winning, he keeps putting money in his lost game hoping he will win. I feel sorry for you Americans, because you have to pay the bill?

I am white lower income($15000) American and Bush is destroying our family. Gas is to high, cost of food too high, cost of heating too high, cost of living too damn high. My husband is a disabled veteran who receives ssi and we have plenty of class.

Oh Bush and buddies will put thro all that they can...most of it illegal or beneficial for themselves.. all will be done before January.. you can bet on that.

Sounds like a plan. People here do need to get involved in this. The country is in total chaos right now, over so many things: Irag, immigration, oil, deficits, educations, etc. \n\n6 years, hundreds of biliion dollars, millions of illegal immigrants, $3:50/ gallon later, Bush is still an idiot. Selling the country out!

I agree with the answerer that said Medicare is screwed up. My dad has been on it for years. He can't do the paperwork. I guess all the ills in the World are the Dems fault. (Sarcasm alert) The Reps will get the pharmaceutical industry's full support. I'm not a fan of the Dems, but the US has to vote for someone better in '08. I'm thinking brother Jeb will run then. In 2000, after King Shrubby II was given the election, I predicted he'd win reelection and Jeb would run and win in '08 and get reelection in '12. I won't underestimate the stupidity of the American voter like I did in 2000. I thought they were smarter than to vote for a second Bush mistake. I'd bet money that Jeb will run and win. I certainly hope I'm wrong.

They must be paying her under the table. Bush politics is so corrupt, it makes my stomach churn.\n\nSelling the us out piece by piece, if not soul by soul. I wonder if the voice of God he claims he hears is the voice of Satan instead? Scary stuff.

Won't work unless everybody makes the same amount of money. The person who has a minimum wage job would get screwed, he doesn't have that much taxes taken out to off set the  increase in gas costs.

Bush is interested in his own gains after the presidency is over. It's obvious he doesn't care about the people. He's setting himself up to live high and mighty once he's gouged the people into degradation. He is a joke.\n\nOur healthcare crisis is nearly impossible and causes much of the hunger challenges in our country. Paying hundreds of dollars a month for insurance is taking the food off American tables. How much are you paying for healthcare? I think that if a person serves in the military for six years, they should get free healthcare for life for themselves and their dependents.  I believe that people should not have to send their food budget to the fat insurance companies out there who deny claim after claim. I think companies who hire temps and lay them off just so they don't have to offer benefits should be penalized. It's not just the president who's guilty of fleecing people into poverty. \n\nThe sad thing is, it's the WORKING people who are starving. There are plenty of programs out there to provide for those who are not able or do not want to work. They get free healthcare, housing, and food. If you choose to work a job, you lose that. I know of one particular mother who tried to work a job, but she just couldn't do as good as the system did for her.\n\nI also think high-speed internet should be available everywhere for free. Taxes should be flat on things you purchase only and not on income, food, or necessities.  I think number of votes should MEAN something. . . votes of ALL the people not state by state.  We are a young, messed up, and arrogant country. We have so many resources and yet we struggle. There is really no reason for it other than the fact that people who struggle are easier to bilk, control, and squeeze.

I hope so, depends on how the repuglicans spin their failures in the last 5 years. Some people would believe any thing that they say, I for one have never been fond of supply side economics's It has never worked. Clinton's consumer driven economics got the budget in the black and it didn't take long for Bush and his goons to end all of that prosperity.

I think that the government could do something but they are so out of touch with reality that they won't. When Clinton was faced with the same thing he released the stategic reserves and that brought the price of gas down right now. Bush could do the same thing but he won't because he is probably profitiing by it some way.

Maybe if we tell Bush that Nigeria has oil he will just bomb it off the face of the planet and then we won't have to worry about getting anymore "I'm a lawyer from Nigeria and your relatives all died in a car accident and they had $10,000,000 and your the only person w/ this last name I could find...." type of scams... -beaver (Rock Island, Illinois)

Sounds like a good choise to me. As in the near future with the cost of petrol going up continually, people wont be able to afford to run a car!

I am from the south also and do not think it has anything to do with the hurricanes.Its just that political and business are being greedy filling their own wallets, and the heck with everyone else. Just like in the 70's gas went sky high and they had oil stored away. Pretty soon there is going to be two groups of people the rich and the poor, no inbetween. Right now you have people selling things just to get money for gas to get back and forth to work. So between the gas prices,elec bills and everyday things we need to live who is getting richer? Most of us are up the creek without a paddle. All we can do is take a really good look at who we but into office next election.
