Good grief. Talk about not wanting what you ask for in life.

First, gas should be much higher. Not only will it encourage walking and the development of different forms of transit, it will keep everyone's waistlines from ballooning. Less makes it to market, is more expensive, and fewer trips to the local grocery and mall results.

Learn to grow things, sweetie, and learn to use much much less. Very bad for the environment to throw things away. Learn composting.

Higher oil and nat gas prices will spur exploration and development.

I just see this as a win-win situation for all those lefties who have been whining about societal problems. Why don't they agree now?

And yeah, the tagline is for real.

That gets tough when everything is nearly 20 miles away with the exception of the little country store with prices that are nearly double what they are in town.
