Too Pissed to Overspend for my Gas!

I have posted the entry about this before at here which I made in September 2005 which the gas price was approximately at the range of $2.50 to $2.65 per gallon. Now last week we have surpressed the $3 per gallon barrier and the station now charges over $3.15 per gallon at my area and the particular chevron charges $3.23 (It was $3.12 per gallon on the day before) per gallon and it was totally empty when I drove by while the acro across the street only charges $3.09 that was packed with cars! So at the rate where we are going so we are flirting with the $4 barrier and President Bush said he have suspended the oil summer deposits to the federal oil reserve to cool market down but in my opinion, it won’t be working because that probably will add only 30,000 barrels per day to the demand of 21 million barrels per day. Reversing the tax cuts from the oil companies won’t be working either because the companies have the power to pass the increased taxes to the consumers by raising the gas prices! What we have to do is that to push our government to accelrate the research and development of the reliable hydrogen fuel cell or improve the ethanol technology!

While the oil companies are reaping in their record-high profits and the consumers are being increasingly angered as the gasoline price continues to raise, for the federal government, I urge you to pass some kind of restricting law that applies to the oil companies that they can not charge the consumers if we are going to tax the oil companies more to correct the raising price which there is not any bill that is related to it.

For me, I have to suspend my daily commute between home and my primary job by car for a bike ride of 4 miles per way since the spending for the gasoline becoming more and more ridiculous! So I am doing my part to ease the demand down so will you ? Oh, no offense for those of you who drives the Chevy Suburban as the personal transport but I have to rant this, trade that damn gas-hogging SUV in for more effiecent SUV!
