Just wanted you folks to check this guy out. He's a truck driver from Ponchatoula, Louisiana and he is "for real". He is running for President in 2008 on a platform that Americans need cheap fuel. He has it all lined out on how to get it. He knows he's not going to win, but he wants to be the voice of the average being screwed at the fuel pump on a daily basis!You have to say the guy has some guts!
A quote from Jeff (Petro): "I'm hearing about gas prices in South America at $0.20/gallon and in Kuwait at $0.14/gallon. Why don't we just hire tankers to go and fill up at their stations and bring it over here. I know it won't cost more than $0.50 to transport it so we'll be at the $1.25/gallon now." Please pass this on to all of your friends! Get the word out!

I'm pleased people are speaking out.
But the only real amswer I see is an alternative to Oil products, like Hydrogen.
The oil companies have a strangle hold on the world and until we can avoid them altogether we are doomed to pay their prices.

This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. The government cannot force the oil industry to lower its prices. That is the entire idea of our society. It is called DEMAND. When we demand something, the value of that item goes up, thus increasing the price. If you want to live in a society where the government controls business (and the rest of your life) then by all means move to Venezuala or Kuwait and see how great the rest of your life is.
