The state of things as I see it
Well, things don't look so good these days, but if you look at it, there is a certain faction in this country that wants it that way. Gee now I wonder who?
First, the oil companies, they are out of control and have merely relegated themselves to be terrorists, with price increases, as they rake in record profits. They have no regard for the people of this country and need to be stopped immediately. Then you have the speculators who are another cause of this, buying oil futures and driving the prices up even more.
So now we get to food prices. If you think about it, they have to go up due to increased transportation costs, distribution facility costs, and processing costs. Don't forget about the farmer who has to produce this stuff.
We all wonder why the housing market is declining, and people are going into foreclosure. Fuel prices again, people just can't afford the cost a maintenance anymore.
Our utilities go up, because the cost of producing energy goes up, hand in hand with the increasing fuel costs.
So we turn to alternative energy sources, which will be expensive, again due to increased fuel prices, i.e.... manufacturing, delivery, oils to lubricate moving parts, and so on.
Labor increases due to higher prices across the board, for the individual and their families.
Think also about packaging of our consumer goods. Those horrible plastic boxes that cat your fingers when you buy anything these days, the plastic shopping bags, trash bags, and even paper bags.
The airlines can't make it because no one can afford to buy and ticket, so the airlines keep their prices low, causing them to lose money, causing layoffs, increasing unemployment.
Jay Leno stated the other night that he was testing a hybrid that uses little to no fuel, and all he has to do is plug it in. Uhhhh, isn't that using electricity? Hmmm, where does that come from???? Fuel, yeap you guessed it.
Everything we do uses fuel, our defense, our moving about, our food, our luxuries and our entertainment.
Please stop with the Green attitude to solve all our problems. It takes fuel to become Green, just plain and simple, fuel.
Until we regulate the oil companies, and place a government in this country that give a damn about us, we will spiral out of control until we all starve to death.
I say to hell the the greedy fuel industry, let's, as Americans speak out. We have to do something, and quick. Send letters to your representatives, and lots of them. Speak out against these Government subsidized terrorists call the Oil Companies, for if you don't there is no one to blame but yourselves. So excuse my rhetoric here, get off your asses and speak out, and do it now, or stop whining. I am doing it, why can't you.
Here's a start for you, a list of people to speak out to
