really? There is more opportunity than ever. This talk of being screwed is hilarius.....who is buying all these 50 inch flat screen TVS, DVDs, Digital Cams, VAn Stall reel etc......you are! No one is making you, the "man" doesnt exist.
Screw patriotism or the govt,. we are in a capitialist society, money talks. If you find a better way, it will make money. What changed in this country is there is too much whining, to much talk about being victims. This country was bullt on blood and sweat. Want lower gas prices, get off gas! This is AMerica, we have the brains and technology. No why were not???? THERE IS NO MONEY IN IT!!!!!!! Once it becomes profitable for hybrids or alternative fuel cars, they will be produced. |

This crap bringing stuff over the bridge and costing more has to stop!!
It might be true for a one time delivery to someone here on the Cape. But when you have 500 Stop & Shops and 500 Shaw's and 5000 Gas stations its just bull!!!
I don't believe that it cost them anymore then going to anyone of there off Cape stores!! Especially since we pay a ton more for are gas and food!!
Not to mention all the summer people that spend spend spend when they are here!!
Off Cape gas is as low as $2.65 while we are still at $3.04 in the midcape!!  |

See, this is what you guys get for all those years of telling us Bourne residents who live on the mainland side that we don't really live on the Cape  |

I just love that "Because they have to truck it all the way out here "answer. Well, how much to truck it to Ohio? It's less there. Karl, do your Sunday papers have a marked up sticker on them? They don't pay extra in the Berkshires.  2.99 9/10 in Truro today. |

That was the excuse why gas went up 30 cents a gallon when you crossed from Southampton into East Hampton on LI.
Costs just as much to truck gas to Riverhead and Greenport as to East Hampton and Montauk. But the price difference was about 20-30 cents.
Costs a lot of money to truck gas to upstate NY, too. But prices there were 20 cents less than the cheapest stations on LI and in the City  |

no. the timing is coincidental.
1) summer driving season is over
2) recessions are always deflationary because there's less industrial demand for raw materials (we're in a recession, we don't buy as much rubber dog$hit from China as we used to, Chinese cut production of said rubber dog$hit, Chinese use less oil). oil and gasoline are not the only industrial commodities that have come down ... look at aluminum, steel, copper, etc. all down bigtime.
