Gasoline prices over $4.00/gal

[Caille53]

George Bush is a lame duck, and looking toward his future.  That is bound to be wrapped up with the oil companies, and so I think that they will pretty much have free reign to raise prices until he's out of office.  I look for the US to choke on $4 per gallon prices before the end of the year.  Has anybody else noticed that in the middle of an economic recession, the oil companies are making huge profits??  Why aren't we raising more questions about that?  Never mind the price of driving- people will freeze to death next winter in the Northeast...

Yeah and if they don't manage to freeze to death, they'll probably die of starvation.

You say that the price of gas is going to hit $4.00 per gallon by the end of the year, that's not bad compared to what we're paying here in Australia, we are paying around the $6.24 a gallon now, I hate to think what the end of the year will bring us.

Dear Friends,

A few days ago somebody demonstrated by running a Bike on Pure Air stored in a Plastic Tank kept on the back seat. This was shown on T.V. He also explained the principles behind this. They showed air being pumped in the Plastic Tank and then this man drove the bike. If this is successful than you can kiss good bye to hike in gasoline prices.

a gallon is 3,78 litre.....we pay now 2,4o US dollar for each litre and that would say : around 9,1 dollars for each gallon.

Ohhh....horrible...or is it?

We live in a world where each human with a income that allow a car shall buy one and drive one.

We can look to America, where most of the big "Gasoline drinking cars" are and where they try to keep the lowest price in order to use them.

We can then look to our world....how polluted it has become in the last 30-40 years.

Much of this pollution can be a direct result of our need to have an easy life, to dreive our own car, to fly for each small trip we shall take.

So yes, Bush and "Most of the politicians" are lame ducks, not because the price become 4 $, but because it not become 10$ or more.

We are starting to see what our "feast" has lead to....the prices on food increase....poor people starve...we will get uproar and migrations.

All this will not happen because you drive a car...or that I drive a car....but it is a part of the whole thing because WE all drive a car...because We all use airplain to much....because we use fossil fuel in our factories, our homes....we are moving it from earth to the air...we are making an unbalance.

I am not saying this in order to attack you, because most of us don't think in this lane....but maybe it's time for our "Locomotive" (USA) to follow what many of the wagons behind have noticed , and then start to do something about it

Here is Canada, prices have risen to $1.35 (Canadian) for a litre !!!!!

We Canadians are pretty good with trying to decrease pollution, with using public transportation ( we're actually testing hybrid buses at the moment), and during the warm months ( 4 months a year) most of us bike.

(I'm not boasting, far from it... I'm just saying that some countries are making an effort).

$4.00 US per gallon
within 30 days
my educated opinion

[Ashs92lude]

over here its already past $4.00. right now i'm in California paying $4.18 for premium.

[Samson]

And here in Australia we are paying a $1.58 a litre for our fuel, that's approximately $6.32 a Gallon if your in America.

[suzisco]

I pay £1.21 a litre. Prices here in the uk have always been high as our government has always taxed fuel very heavily.

It costs me £45 a week to travel to work and back in fuel.

[velvetraven]

i dont much go anywhere because of the prices of gas its crazy around 3.79 per gallon here

[vixenangel]

i hear ya, some of us who are financially challenged can't afford to go to work! what kind of government do we have?

[skywatcher3]

Why is bush not helping us with this gas crisis? Because he has his head up the oil companies wazoo! And our taxes pays for his gas. He just worries about the mideast and Israel too much. Let god take care of Israel,. Ain't that   his job? Hmmm. Maybe not. And I never will pray for him. Never. Except that he be beamed out of here by ETs.
