What If, part 2

9 May

In all seriousness, I agree with the comments on yesterday’s post . . . The real question here is “What is the solution??” It is apparent that we are WAY TOO DEPENDENT on gasoline. We empower the oil companies with our demand for their product and our willingness to pay the price, no matter how high it climbs. And, as Dean found, who among us can afford a battery-powered car???

Maybe we REALLY need to commit to not drive as much . . .To plan our trips with more efficiency . . . To drive smaller cars, and to slow down . . . And maybe, just maybe, we need to ALL contact our US Senators and ask for an inquiry into the frequent and sudden jumps in gas prices. Analysts say we need to build another gas refinery, but no one wants to build it in their neighborhood. Is that really the answer???
