Just think if Linc Chafee is elected govenor he'll put a sales tax on groceries you'll spend more on food and in turn you'll accumulate points on your S&S card faster and you'll save money on gas!

Oh that's right he wants to increase the gas tax too.

On a more serious note I remember when it was $4 a gallon and heating oil was over $4.$60-$70 to fill up the Tacoma and $800 to fill the oil tank.Lets hope it doesn't go there again.

I think it is only a matter of time. Until we start decreasing our dependence on foreign oil, we won't have control over our fuel costs.
