Default I dont like gas price threads but heres a petition thing

http://www.gaspriceprotest.com/

Yea I went and signed it, it probably wont make a difference but what the hell will all the bitching and complaining i see on here do? At least if you complain on there it might mean more then complaining on here. Feel free to post this amongst other forums for the hell of it.

Yeah, Newt Gingrich has a petition also on his site.
I posted a thread about it a while back.
It doesn't hurt to sign petitions but going to DC and paralyze that stupid town would be more effective.

Watch the truckers when they'll finally blow a fuse.

Exactly.
It'a a lot more serious for them.
Gas is directly connected to their way of living.
I bet they'll make a move at election time. I know I would.

that would just screw up a whole lot of things. Americans are a bunch of pusses now. We thrive on the convenience of how easy things are for us. Poeple seriously need to get their heads out of their asses and understand if we are to stop using gas then we are going to have much much less convenience in this country. I myself would rather keep driving my vehicles at these $4 gallon rates instead of having things a lot less convenient for me. Once an alternate way of fast low cost transportation arrives I will get that and enjoy my convenient lifestlye without paying high gas prices.

That means someone else has to do the job for you.
You call American pusses but you're the one that lead the pack.
If you're not part of the solution,GTFO!

stupid ass petitions like that show big companies how stupid we are to think that they will actually have any effect. the market rules itself, we have to make good decisions to drive them to lowering prices.

How would someone do that?

I mean, I've torn up the bathroom or two in my day but DC'sa lot bigger than that.

Anyway, yeah the US dollar sucks right now and that's the cornerstone. How does the $ fare in the international community? Well, it's sucking. *ahem, NAFTA/outsourcing, lying foreign countries, etc*.

I also agree that signing a petition won't help the our economy.

I work at a refinery, and I can tell you that we're trying to expand and it's next to impossible. The local city refuses to grant the permitting required for the expansion unless the refinery agrees to let the city rape them in the ass on taxes.
