Gas Prices!

For the first time in my life I spent $70 to fill up my truck.  Half of me was amazed while the other was just angry! 

Gas prices can cause a person to do some thinking about things.  Like what will happen if the trend continues.  If Gas goes up to $7.00 per gallon over the next eight years what would that do?

If we don’t employ an alternative fuel soon, we will be in big trouble.  Or at least I will!  However, using an alternative fuel means un-employing the oil industry.  Or does it? 

I have often heard that there have been plenty of alternative fuels around, but the oil companies keep buying up the patents to eliminate competition.  That may be true.  Why can’t the oil industry spend a few billion finding a new fuel source?  Then when it is found not everyone will lose their job!

I have seen a few videos about running cars on water.  HHO I believe it is called.  Everyone knows that hydrogen or oxygen can be used as fuel.  However the cost of separating the hydrogen from the oxygen has been cost prohibitive.  But with gas being so high, I think it is starting to look pretty good. 

If the powers that be keep us from using alternative fuels, then what would happen?  I was talking with a friend of mine and he said rising gas prices  would eventually  generate a serious separation of classes.  Those that have and those that don’t.  This makes sense.  If it costs someone fifty cents per mile to get to and from work, then work will probably be within biking distance! 

This constant  increase in gas prices could cause a complete change in our business complexion.  People would have to eat locally grown fare.  NO more flying unless you are rich!  No more visiting friends across town.  It is staggering to think along those lines. 

Pray for the water operated automobiles then!

Why fund mosques anyways?
