Gasoline Prices are Spiking Again

$20 Stacks

I don't know about the rest of the country, but in Los Angeles the price of a gallon of gas has spiked 55% this year alone -- that's the biggest price increase ever seen! Gas is at $3/gal, and if you haven't been watching the price has gone up 34 days in a row.

Once again the Oil Market Speculators are being blamed, and for some reason there's no protests or examination the news about this

The problem that too many Americans have, and perhaps most people around the globe, is that when something that is good for you is a little more expensive, people won't choose it. They'll fuck-up and select the bullshit item, because it's cheaper.

That's why Hybrids aren't all over the place - regardless of price. The IRS provided you a tax credit for the additional cost of buying a hybrid over the fucked-up internal combustion engine version, I still don't think people would make the right choice - bitches - because cash returned in the future doesn't seem to have any present value.

What the fuck is wrong with people? I guess the TOKYO Big 3 will serve up more versions of their popular cars as Hybrids, but for some reason those bitches in Germany haven't announced any hybrids. In fact, VW derides hybrids in their car commercials -- I would have to have those slandered if I was working PR for We Can Solve or Al Gore's Organizations.

People wake up on this issue before there's more pain during the recession.
