That didn't really make any sence. I made a post about how I now pay extra money at the pump and inflating prices are gonna start killing me, then you said something so I corrected myself and you went on. So I tried to make it a little more clear for you and sugested that you didn't have to get so anal about an off the top of my head estimate. Hopefully that clears things up a bit.

You think it sucks for you, think about the people who drive for a living.

"oil companies are now enjoying huge profits. in 2003 the top five oil companies, exxonmobil, chevrontexaco, conocoPhillips, bp, and royal dutch/shell, earned $60 billion dollars in net Profits- ranging from $4.7 billion to more than $21 billion in NET income."

Plus, the Bush Administration is trying to pass a bill that will give the oil companies even more of a tax break.

don't blame in on the Saudies...but there are a few idiots in this country you could blame it on...

Come to Canada... our gas is about $4 a gallon... or $1 per litre. Costs $40 to fill up my Civic.
