so enlighted your representative with your brillient idea to lower pump price. I’m sure they can use your wisdom.

BTW I ran a service station in 1973-74 and those gas shortages that drove the prices up. History repeats itself again.

OMG there’s a cloud in the Gulf of Mexico! EVACUATE!!

It’s time ONE grade of fuel is used by ONE nation. ONLY the feds can mandate a blend a standard fuel that meets THEIR standards for emissions.

It’s the ONLY way to end this ridiculous state seasonal/custom blending by idiots like Cali’s ARB.

Shows what you choose to ignore. In the first place there are at least two very necessary grades of diesel, and what I consider at least three or four necessary grades of gasoline, but we agree completely about the many other seasonal grades as long as the octane necessity for the many engines on the road is taken care of and winter is accomodated as well.

IIRC there is a low octane fuel for engines allowing eighty five octane. Eighty seven octane is the industry standard of today, Ninety one high octane. There is also a need for a racing fuel, and 100LL for aircraft use, and that doesn’t cover jet fuel, and a whole lot of other needs.

For years the INDUSTRY has been able to take care of the needs of transportation in this country without the meddling of the federal government. Why is it, having shown us their meddling hand, you are willing to give the agency causing the problems, more power to wield against those who know the industry and needs of the nation? Private industry is fully capable of fullfilling the needs of the nation.

"I believe the government should now control oil and regulate the value thereof much as it does the price of gold."

Let me guess...

“and the state gets to blend fuel for seasonal use and to their standards for emmissions even if it means poisioning all of us here with MTBE”.

You have a state representative as well. How about getting control of or eliminating the CA ARB along with all the radical environmental midgets, whose loud raspy voices have undermined common sense, especially in CA (aplologies to normal midgets everywhere).

Isn’t gold a commodity who’s value is fixed at $50.00/troy oz by Congress, you know, the part about coining money and regulating the value thereof?

Isn’t oil a commodity too?

Move before it is too late.

Pray for a miracle.

CA, awarded best example of a democrat controlled state doing what democrats do best, expecting continued positive results in a down economy with shrinking population, heavy debt and deficits high taxes, bountiful state benefits, and excessive retirement obligations. Could probably fill several pages.

Deregulate and then hang all progressives of both partys.
Progressive = socialist = communists.
Capitalism works fine as long as government stays the hell out of the way.

Just what we all need. A comic. Your solution is .... insert drum roll here ....

Some people have to be forced into slavery, others embrace it willingly. Just wait until you reach the status of "pet" and then the final gov't goal of "livestock". You must be part of the 47% Mitt was talking about - those who want the Gov't to take care of them at the expense of of others.

Gold a fair traded commodity purchased in large part by people outside of the US; congress has nothing to say about the value of gold.

If you know anyone willing to sell gold at $50/oz. please get back in touch. Last time I checked it was a bit north of $1,750/ oz.

For you I would suggest moving out of the state of fruits and nuts. If you do, please leave your socialistic, communistic and central planning convictions at the California border, preferably well within in its border.

We already have enough of you limp brain ex-Californians that are trying to ruin our state just as you did California.

You come here, you play by our rules. NO EXCEPTIONS!

I have an 1824 quarter. Do you imagine it’s worth $.25? Do you imagine you can buy a current gold eagle for $50? Have you spent a sober day yet this month or are you just tired of your meds?
