yea i felt a little ripped when i put 15 bucks of gas in the automobile today and got away with just under 1/2 a tank, which in reality is about 1/4 of a tank cause the gauge is ****** up from a Vshaped tank. bonehead GM engineers. which is another thing. these Exxon dicks and GM *****, they make all this money and look what they have to show for it. a bunch of crap.

I called it last year when gas went up over $3...I said thats the end of gas under $2 and I was right. Once they saw that people were willing to pay another dollar for gas of course they would keep it there. Gas came back down a little so that people would feel a little 'relief' but how quickly America forgot that a year and a half ago we were paying half as much.

But big oil has us by the nuts, we need gas everyday and its obvious. So they up the price and add 25,000 sq ft additions to their already huge mansions and watch the stories of their profits on their 100" plasma tv's...
