If so, then feel free to take the credit for that, kahl ol' buddy... I was wondering myself where I got that attitude toward somebody that's pretty new here, and I started thinking that maybe I've just gotten so burned out from my ridiculous discussions with you that now I have no patience for anyone. ...and I used to be so patient with people... *sigh* |

"Y'know, maybe I'm being a dick here, but this is pretty fucking easy to figure up. You really should have no problems working this out for yourself. " This must be your catch-phrase or something. |

Y'know, maybe I'm being a dick here, but this is pretty fucking easy to figure up. You really should have no problems working this out for yourself. Start asking the easy questions, like: Since when has more government regulation benefitted the consumer / citizen?! |

I'm not saying it's a conspiracey, but I AM saying they need to be regulated more. They are having a banner year in profitability, and the price is still going up. Shouldn't some of that profit go towards improving our refining ability? If that's not what's going on, what is? If the cost of oil was the cause of this their profits would go down. If they wanted to end scarcity they'd make more refineries rather than laying people off when they have plenty of oil to be bought and refined. A spokesman for King abdullah said they Saudis could ship two million barrels a day to the US but with out the refineries to make it into gas it will do nothing for the price. |

| Preechr | Yes. That's exactly what's going on. | |

the only problem with that is some of us are to poor to afford that, the government doesn't get the money, and it drains the economy because the refineries are DECREASING jobs and output to drive up the price. The government gets less money, the public is cost more, and very few executives get to swim in money like scrooge mcduck. |

| kahljorn | I don't know about you guys but I don't mind paying out the ass for gas and having to set a few hundred aside a month for it. I like to support our country, and our economy. | |

there's a law that you can order your own prescriptions from overseas, customs won't seize it unless it's more than a three months supply. Of course you can't get some drugs, but I believe you can use doctors prescriptions to get some of the drugs you couldn't get otherwise. I've ordered prescriptions online before, you just have to be careful with where you order(like anything else online). I agree about the FDA and the medical system in general, though, I was just throwing that idea out there. |

Someone needs to deal with it cause it's costing obscene amounts of money. For the record i'd like someone to stand up to prescription drug lobbies so we could import from Canada and have cheap generics too. |

Re: gas prices up 30% profits up 30% Lawmaker says it dont a Quote:
If I found out about this, I'd threaten the oil lobbyists until I've gotten my share of profits from them. |

gas prices up 30% profits up 30% Lawmaker says it dont addup If I lived in Indiana I'd vote for this guy. Indiana House Democrat Leader B. Patrick Bauer (D-South Bend) today asked Attorney General Steve Carter to investigate the possibility of gas price gouging in Indiana. He specificly said that his contituents were greatly worried about this and that the profits went up by the same percentage in a year the gas prices went up in that same year seems some what specious if they aren't gouging. I think we need to ask ALL our senators to do the same for each state. I want to give this guy an award for not caving in to the oil lobbiests. |
