  • Are you figuring it out people?

    Corp. bankers, government spending on useless wars etc...

    Ever wonder why were screwed?

  • There is no way to get "Greened out" in the US. We can not ever because the way we built our cities, Roads, and even deliveries. They could bring the price to 400 and we would have to buy it. I believe my Grandparents must have been the greatest group of dumb-asses ever. No foresight at all. The Baby Boomer were even worst.

  • Force them to take delivery.l

  • Make them take physical delivery.

  • @landlogger ,ty,. yeah i never really did either. but I'll bet it takes a tons!

  • wow this is really interesting to hear! because everything i've heard so far is that gas prices rise because of oil prices and oil prices rise because the saudis have the west "by the balls". now seeing that it's basically the opposite... very, very interesting.

  • @basejumperful I know about that one, Its the worst thing that happen to our cities in America and a microcosm of the problem with our fascist Corporate Government.

  • @SPAGHETTIMONSTER1  never thought about that. Great point!

  • I wonder how much oil wars take?

  • @btigtime2 Great American streecar scandal.Wikipedia.

  • @btigtime2 - I agree that a lot of city planning is bad, and I'm not surprised by your comments. But I have seen it done where I live (Tokyo-metro). They also had little planning post-WW2 and the goal was build fast rather than build smart. However, in the time I've been here (20 years), I've seen how "quickly" things change: better/convenient trains, greenery around/on top of buildings, solar/wind energy on street lights - even buildings being retro-fitted for earthquakes. It is possible.

  • @btigtime2 You're right we need to restructure our infrastructures. Problem is the people in power are so corrupt that it's never going to happen unless we get rid of them French revolution style! /watch?v=EewGMBOB4Gg and /watch?v=4Z9WVZddH9w
