The price of gasoline is out of control, that's true. But you can blame it on OPEC, and on the greedy oil companies. Just because OPEC (That's "Oil Producing and Exporting Countries," if you didn't know) raised the price of oil to $98 per barrel, that doesn't have any effect on the cost of Exxon to produce a barrel. They produce the oil for the same cost, then jack the price up to meet the world price.
It's so easy to blame Bush for everything. I even heard Bush caused the extinction of the dinosaurs!

SO you see it too . At what point will making a million dollars mean if it takes 25 dollars to buy a loaf of bread .
If people no longer want just a dollar but three because they can trade a barrel of oil for ten pounds of T-shirts 100 pairs of shoes and 2 tons of iron and to get that in dollars cost three times as much as it did 5 years ago what has to happen .
Since we no longer make anything except weapons what will we be exporting to the world .
Money and management experience .
I hate to break it to you all but the world is smarter then we give them credit for being .

Evidence, please. The mainstream media and the Democrats don't seem to agree. They blame many things on 'Bush's tax cuts' and say tax rates need to go up. I disagree that tax cuts cause economic problems. It's my money, not the government's, and if everyone gets to keep more of their money, people are encouraged to invest. Investment spurs economic growth and results in higher tax revenue. Tax cuts work every time they are tried. So please show proof that anyones' taxes have tripled due to inflation.

Obama only spent one trillion extra suitable than he took in, how's he gonna pay for THAT. If Liberals have been clever sufficient to appreciate the Laffer curve, they does no longer be Liberals. heavily how complicated is it to appreciate that taking extra money from enterprise slows the monetary equipment & taking much less facilitates it improve. Tax cuts do no longer could desire to PAY for themselves. If the government takes much less it needs to spend much less - it is that easy. And while could desire to the government heavily think of approximately taking much less? HOW approximately while THE monetary equipment IS interior the TANK YOU DC MORONS! So what's Obama doing? - Weeeeee it is loose healthcare for the undesirable. Oh enable's purchase some non worthwhile motor vehicle companies. OH we could help human beings purchase vehicles. we could purchase some failing banks. Oh we could positioned money into non profitible green companies. Oh we could close down profitible oil rigs. enable's bail out Haiti. enable's bail out Greece. enable's boost unemployment reward. enable the Bush tax cuts expire. we could improve enterprise tax. enable's create Cap & commerce tax. we could improve the tax on people who create jobs. And while the monetary equipment does not recuperate Obama will ask that severe question: "How did Bush get us right here?" while the monetary equipment grew to become into slumping Regan decrease taxes & the monetary equipment rebounded. Tax sales grew even inspite of the shown fact that Tax expenses have been decrease. And in case you vote Democrat, you're vote casting for the metality that asks questions like: "How can we pay for those tax cuts?"

Actually its more like quintuple or even more.
But I don't put all the blame on Bush. There are a lot of other factors that enter in as well.

The taxes are the same but the price per gallon has risen. If the taxes were tripled as well the price of gasoline would more than quadruple.
In NC where I live the tax per gallon is about $0.39 . If the taxes were tripled they would be almost $1.20.
Nuff said?

Bush is not the reasons for our problems. People like you are. Take responsibility for your problems and quit blaming everyone else. Or go move to Canada with Micheal Moore

Last time I looked, my tax rates were still the same. It may suck, but they have not gone up. The prices have gone up for varying reasons.
Also, it's CONGRESS that raises those taxes...not the President. All you're doing is looking for more reason to hate Bush.
