When will people wake up and demand the government do something about these gas prices?
Oil is dropping like a rock, yet gas prices have not dropped at all. last week was in Rhode Island visiting family and gas was almost 4 dollars at self serve and over $4 at full serve. Here in NJ it is still in $3.67 range. I am tired of hearing that when oil droppes it takes six months for that oil to reach the pumps, but yet when oil goes up gas goes up instantly.
Obama needs to put a cap on gas prices, and if oil companies can't make billions in profits, too bad. Stealing is against the law, why should companies have a license to steal when it comes to nessecities. Gas, heating oil etc are needed by people to get to work and to survive in the winter, it is not a luxury like going to a sporting event.

When oil goes up they raise them right away, however when oil drops we get the "that oil wont reach us for 6 months " bullshit. Government should put a stop to this. If the oil wont reach us for 6 months when the prices drop it works the same when prices go up.
Obama should pass a law that all cars must be off of oil by 2020 and have car companies develop engines that can run long distances on other sources of energy.

I recently purchased a Sharp Aquos Lc-46SE94U LCD television. It has Aquos net capabilities, but i have a wireless network and the router is in a seperate part of the house. Is there a way to connect an ethernet cable without running 100 feet of cable around the house.
2 AnswersTVs1 decade agoDoes anyone believe this B.S. about gas prices climbing while oil has dropped.?
I am all for companies making profits, but come on. Oil has dropped to near record lows and gas is on the rise. We all hear about how the opec countries are storing oil on supertankers to cause and artificial supply shortage to pump up prices. This should be stopped and these are the things Obama should bring his change to. People should not have to pay through the nose for necessities.
3 AnswersCurrent Events1 decade agoWhy doesn't the government give the entire stimulus amount to the people and not the banks.?
Several months ago an E-Mail was floating around suggesting the goernment take the 1st stimulus money and pay every legal, working citizen and equal portion of the money. I believe they had figured it out to be round 245,000.00 after taxes to the averge person. They would then pay down or off their Mortgages, car loans etc. Housing crisis solved, banking problem sovled, people would buy new cars nd sovle the auto makers problems. Money would be flowing into the economy again. This is alot less than the 10's of millions in bonuses that a select group of crooks took home last month.
