We are NOT running out of hydrocarbon based fuels,,,,we are running out of people and politicians that have the ***** to let people like me drill, produce and refine fossil fuels. pm me, or save my typing fingers by calling me,,,, ANY OF YOU,,,, for the facts!
30 plus years in the energy industry here out in Oklahoma. You are being lied to,,,big time! Ask yourself,,,why would politicians want to keeps us from cheaply being a mobile society, have low cost fuels to power our homes, produce affordable food and distribute same ,,,It is about power. Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutley. We, as a Nation, are there, unless you and me wake others up!

Oh yeah there is no global warning too. I have read all of the data and sorry you are WRONG. There are no more dinosaurs dieing (besides us) being compressed to form it so it is running out. Yes there is still some more left but it is very costly or of such poor quality that it requires the price to rise to make it profitable. Come back to realty it is time to wake up.

I get two more miles to the gallon using high test. And WHY are we whining about $4 or $5 a gallon? It's STILL cheaper than in any other industrialized nation in the world. Face facts, we are NO LONGER going to militarily subsidize fuel costs by propping up dictators in the middle east. So gas prices will for now on be world market price EVEN FOR US!

Wow you should be in Toronto Canada. $ 5.81 for regular {donkey pee.) not high test.It is $1.28 a litre.(metric crap showed up are butts)
The health care is NOT paid buy the blue eyed Arabs in Canada.The huge profits go to the OIL companies!!!!!.
It costs me $120 to fill up my Tahoe with regular.I put the tank of gas on my fianicial statement as an assest.LOL
We can only get 91 octane at most stations.Sunoco only has 93.
I wish I could get fuel for $3.89

A lot of folks can't understand how we came to have an oil shortage here in our country.
There's a very simple answer.
Nobody bothered to check the oil.
We just didn't know we were getting low.
The reason for that is purely geographical.
Our oil is located in:
Alaska, California, Coastal Florida, Coastal Louisiana, North Dakota, Wyoming, Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma,
Pennsylvania, and Texas.
Our dipsticks are located in DC.
