I wish my truck was only 42 bucks, I filled up tonight on the way home and paid 90 dollars freakin oil companies and their greed is making me sick and costing me more than just money

I can't take this much longer.

55 miles one way to where I'm working, 25 bucks in gas alone for the round trip

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

What torkx me off is that we are double -tripple paying. We paid in cash and blood to liberate and rebuild Kuait. Ditto Afganistan. Then Iraq. Do we get a "deal" of fuel from any of these ingrates??? Noooo. Do we get to pay extra taxs to be over there protecting and rebuilding them. Yessss. So we get to pay extra for their goods AND give them huge chunks of out tax $ too. We're suckers.

Slip, believe me, I feel your pain. Last year I sold my ex-interceptor Caprice, an ex Chief's car because it was costing 100 bucks every time I had to re-fuel. Man, I loved that car. Fast and comfy. And a ginormus fuel tank. My Jimmy gets 20mph, I thought that was ok, but geeze.
