Anonymous Coward User ID: 16026864 United Kingdom 10/10/2012 02:51 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If Obama is re elected, We'll be looking at 6-7 Dollars a gallon. He wants to bring it on par with what the Europeans are paying per gallon. Quoting: Tanarus That probably wouldn't be as bad as it sounds *IF* and I can't emphasise this enough, *if* you guys where allowed access to more efficient engines.. my Ford gets 65 US MPG in the real world, I drive 90 miles to work. I was comparing the small Ford Commercials vans (trucks) and the same vehicle (bodyshape wise) gets 22 US MPG in America compared to 37 US MPG here, quite a disparity, plus the same vehicle is $2000 cheaper here. So I can not help but come to the conclusion that raising your fuel prices to the level of European ones without at least giving you access to more efficient engines has 2 purposes, screw you guys over at home, and screw you guys over at work. And even *if* they do offer you access to more efficient engines it still screws over every existing vehicle owner in the country both at home and at work.. In the real world the only word I can attach to this madness of Obama does plan to go that route is it'll make America "Unworkable" |

It's two completely different things. Quoting: Tanarus Bad call on the pipeline. That would have helped some. Expedite the Keystone pipeline and bash it through America without environmental review so the Canadians can get their oil to China? No, Obama made the RIGHT call, as usual. |

On this, the sad part is that America is being left behind, not that it is any consolation for us as we pay more for our fuel.. My fear, (Most of my family are Americans) is that you'll end up having to play a game of catch up that'll cost America far more, most nations are doing the same in other arenas.. Screwed and Screwed... which I am sure is a global feeling right now.. for me it a sense of failing infrastructure and the feeling we falling backwards rather than moving forwards. Something does have to give, and to be honest, given the number of social, political, economic and militaristic fires burning throughout the world I have no idea what the might be, or entail for us all, but while I try to be hopeful my gut says it won't be good. |

For various reasons, yes we do raise hell. Real Americans don't like someone telling us what type of car to drive or being taxed more simply because we drive a car that Washington classifies as a "gas guzzler" (hint: we already pay more at the pump for driving the bigger cars). America has billions of barrels of oil that we could use if not for the libtard tree huggers. But one day when the supply trucks stop and people start starving and society crumbles, the tree huggers will be the first ones to get their mouths mashed cause we will be coming after the oil whether they like it or not. |

Quoting: GeordieLegend 5.68 GBP = $9.09 per Gallon. Doesn't that extra money you pay cover your healthcare and other taxes? Na, he blows it on Solyndra & other wasteful projects. |
