GAS VERSUS EVERYTHING ELSE

Hmmm, get my presecriptions, or get gas? Fill up my tank, or pay my elecric bill? Many people are asking these same questions, or many similer questions. Our economy is now juggling between bills and gas,prescriptions or gas, you name it! The balancing act of repeatedly squeezing and sqeezing out our paychecks until we have nothing left. First, the health insurance systems suck, then you have none other than the "Gas reeper", yeah, I said it, the grim reaper of this whole skyrockrting gas price debockle! These richer than life, the grousome gas giants are like voltures and unrelentless economic destroyers for not only the middle class citizens, but even the "upper crust" of society. You know gas prices are bad when the "upper crust" of society complains. Gas giants have no empathy on anyone or anything. I bet you the SUV market's are chocking on what little sales they have left to thrive onto. I don't know. But what I do know is that I see and hear people's everyday situations concerning gas prices. They have to choose between gas or groceries, gas or a bill, gas or prescriptions; you have to wonder what the hell they are doing on capital hill. What is blinding the eyes and hearts of congressmen so much that they cannot see what is going on? Well, I know one obvious thing, Green is definitely blinding their eyes! The saying is so very true, greed(and money) is the root of all evil, and that can be the thin line between and economy thriving and an economy dying. What do you think? Let me know and comment. It is always a pleasure. Stay true to yourself.

Yeah well gas prices are not going down any time sooner. Even if we have a free gas holiday , that still doesn't mean that can help the economy out.

Truckers are protesting in europe, Their gas prices went up to 8.00 a gallon, you can read the article on CNN.com
it was hard when my baby was in the NICU. I would eat nothing but cereal and sandwhiches so i could save money for gas to see her in the hosp, i was having to sepen 120.00 a week on gas. It was hard. Alot of teens and men and women gave up their cars for horses here, it was on the news and made me wish i could do the same. You can see some of the teens ont heir horses by the highway here lol.

And those people with Hummers and SUVs are really feeling it now. People are buying up small, more efficient cars like Neons and Mitsubishis now. It's a smart move considering how the economy is right now.
