  If you are so sure, you can invest in oil. This is going to be another thread of people bitching about gas prices while they drive their 2011 Ford Truck, use their smart phones with unlimited data, and wear all the latest fashion that in reality looks like crap.

  I drive a Honda Civic, which I bought because I wanted a fuel efficient car. Work pays for my smartphones...as well as all the data on them. I only wear about 4-5 different t-shirts and jeans and shorts that all total cost about $100.
  
  Can I bitch about $5/gallon gas prices?

  No. If you don't like it, you don't have to buy it.

  im considering buying a moped...or maybe roller blades

  and like 2008, people will pay it--but unlike 2008, they won't bitch (as loud)...it's amazing how accepting we become when force-fed

  I'm getting a motorcycle and using $5 gas as an excuse. My wife bought it. Dumbass.

  While true, that's a dumb argument.

  If you buy roller blades you will need to eat more and the cost of food is going up because gas is going up so your net gain will be 0. Just stop going anywhere.

  and she will love the guy who gets your organs all the same....

  My question is for all the people that bitch, what price should gas be? Free? LOL
  
  Those that complain about the price of gas need to get a life, or get a job.

  Glad I've only bought two tanks of gas in the past three months.

  Indeed.
• closer26

  iknow i don't post much, but sleeper your being pretty dumb here. No one claimed it should be free, but clearly the major companies can still make quite a profit at $3.50 a gallon as opposed to $4.00 a gallon like it is nearing now , and you can't really argue that. It's just a frustating situation and I think everyone has the right to want to vent. But I rest my case, whoever contradicts you obviously needs to get a life or a job, because obviously no one on here has either of those things.

  You don't think we should do something to decrease our dependency on oil? Or should we all just be quiet and pay $5..6..7..8 a gallon? If people don't bitch, nothing will ever change.

  If the price gets that high something will change.

  I have to believe that's what we were saying when it got to be $2.00/gal.+

  I just don't get the lack of outcry now that Obama is office. This is hardly a topic of discussion like it was when Bush was in office, and it started with the media. Where is the fucking outcry by the media now that their homeboy is in office??????????
