Swedish Mike 1 Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 I just had a VS guy staying here for a few days and he almost passed out when he saw our gas prices.2 USD per liter now, that´s almost 8 bucks per gallon! Maybe you understand why we complain? /Mike Link to post Share on other sites
starfish 1 Posted July 24, 2006 Report Share Posted July 24, 2006 Why are you complaining? Isn't Sweden a liberal utopia? The cost of gasoline certainly has little to do with what you are paying. If the liberals took over in the US, we would be paying the same price. Experiencing other peoples misery makes liberals happy. Link to post Share on other sites

Our global economy is dependant on the sustained use of petroleum. Too many politicians are quick to point a finger of blame on others and accept zero responsibility for their actions which led to this predicament. All of this was foreseen to happen years ago but the elected politicians purposely chose to not have a viable energy policy. If the elected politicians continue to allow fuel costs to rise beyond affordability yet deny energy producers ways to allow exploration or increasing refinery capabilities, remember thatTHE VOTER/WORKER/BUSINESS OWNER HAS NO ONE TO BLAME BUT THEMSELF!!!

pm200054 0 Posted September 5, 2006 Report Share Posted September 5, 2006 $2.71 for Sunoco 93. I would pay the $7.00 some other place wanted for the 110 octane, if the savage that works there could tell me if it was unleaded or not. I welcome higher gas prices. Should get some of the riff-raff off the road, and back into their trailers. Link to post Share on other sites
