What are we going to do about these high gas prices?

Question

Here in Michigan is $2.40 a gal.Anywere else I think we should strat up a fight.

Answer 1

the only thing we could really do is boycott, and i doubt that everyone in America will do it. and Bush is lying when he says there is nothing he can do about it. One of the gas companies made a 1.5 Billion dollar PROFIT last year, i mean ever since he got into office we've only gotten high gas prices and a stupid war.

Answer 2

High gas prices?? come to Canada then you will know what high gas prices are. Use your vehicle more efficiently. Maybe consider an electric car for the short run. There are companies out there who do conversions. Buy your fuel from the mom & pop stations and boycott the main-stream oil company owned gas stations.

Answer 3

There is nothing you can do. Dubbya and "Tricky" Dick Cheney are in with the Oil companies and are making a killing off of us. The Democrats aren't going to do much because they are trying to get back in the White House in '08. In last November's elections we Californians could have taxed these ridiculous profits the oil companies are getting but the oil companies dumped millions of dollars into ad's to defeat the measure. Even though it said right in plain view that the ad was paid for by Chevron and other oil producers. For some odd reason no one seemed to pay attention to that and believed everything they said. That's when I realized that nothing could be done so just bend over and take it like the rest of us!!!!!!

Answer 4

I cannot change the gas prices but if it were a big concern to me I would organize my car trips to save on the fuel bill. And walk when you can. It is the cheapest exercise going.

If we take out hugo chavez and ahmaweeniejob, we would see the prices come way down. And as a bonus, the world would be a better place.

Answer 6

Our prices are still less than half of what it costs to buy gasoline in Europe. Minimize your driving, consolidate your errands, and buy more fuel effective vehicles.
