gas
« on: February 25, 2011, 09:05:06 pm »

So on Monday I decided to get $45 in gas, just because..usually I get $20 and then by Thursday I get another $15..it was $3.09 a gallon. I had been $3.12 a cpl days before so it went down, and I figured it was going to go up so I got more than I usually get..

last night I went out and saw gas was at $3.19 a gallon and patted myself on the back for being smarter than the average bear on Monday.. Grin


tonight I went out and gas is $3.48

wtf?

holy shit... Shocked  that $45 I put in isn't going to last me long enough... HA! (eeek)

this is going to hurt... a lot.

hold on tight...

the idea is to get the barrel up to 200.00

crash the dollar by the end of twenty 12...

default on the agreement with opec...

open up america's oil reserves and start drilling baby...

the powers that be...have had this plan since kissenger brokered the deals...

the time is near...china brokered a deal with russia for oil supply...leaving the middle east

and that put eourpe in a bind...which only works as long as the price of a barrel stays above 140.00

anything below fucks russia's production profits...its a system built with twidley winks and lego's

and built in fail safes....

start growing your garden now...cause when the price of fuel hits five a gallon the cost of food is going to crushing...there will be plenty of food on the shelves but affording it will be the challenge...

i could be wrong though...

Ha, I think that's about the right-est thing you said..

and it doesn't have to be $5 a gallon to make food costs crushing.. this little uplift here will hurt, the next, in a cpl days will kill.. crushing will soon follow and all that before it gets to that $5 mark..

remember, Egypt started because of food price.. Gaddafi today said he'd give people $400 to buy food if they'd just go home.. the world food bank has been screaming for many a moon at the overprice of food.. lack of supplies and all the starvation going on.. and just think when all that snow from the massive snow storms we had this year melts? and we get all the floods?.. we're talking $5 for a single apple...

-1 in 4 is on food stamps
-countless children only eat once a day, and that's at school.. those are closing for summer soon.. if they don't close due to budget crisis..
-due to budget crisis, we have to cut food stamps and heating oil subsidies.. how will people make up for that when they still have to eat, even though there is no food stamps to buy with AND apples are $7 each?
-due to budget crisis we need to stop footing the bill for the lazy on unemployment  Roll Eyes ... when grocers can't sell their wares anymore because shipping costs are too much and they've raised everything to unattainable for all but the Rockefeller, what are those lazy,non-working people going to do without the UI check or  the food stamps? and how will their kids eat when there is no school in session?



mayhem is coming...

the good news is the top 1% got their tax cut so they should be sending us jobs in 3....2.....1........

remember, Egypt ... Gaddafi


mayhem is coming...

in

2012...maybe sooner...by design

a design i'm afraid we as people won't gain control of soon enough....

the game has started and the rules are hidden...

the powers that be are in the process of making an omelette...and the eggs are being cracked

or the illusion is being presented to us via the news services selectively...

what we are being told and are seeing happen in video is not always and most often not the truth...

i beleive its montsanto,blackwater and haliburton not to mention the c i a owned google and anderson cooper who are orchestrating this supposite uprising.

I've heard good arguments elsewhere on Peak Oil. If it means that the lack of systems keeping up with demand combined with the ever increasing demand are already in the blender;to that you have the knowledge that the end of the supply is in the binoculars. I believe that's an accurate assessment which will soon leave American's addiction to cheap oil to be a very hard cold turkey on the back's of the majority who are doing good to keep the electric bill paid on time. All media has told us about some sort of food crisis soon and if you avail yourself to available video documentation, UN Props and non corporate funded media outlets, it's clear that a major crisis is coming with an awful lot of foreknowledge.

DRILL BABY DRILL! Roll Eyes

we will...we have too...

but not until...the timing is right

and it is close...

a little more tweeking of the distabilization in

the middle east...and it will be on...

and...if the price of gas stays above four dollars a gallon...

altenative energy becomes profitable...yay...for a minute,

till they tank the price after we open our oil fields...

this is the best rollercoaster ride ever....

a. It'll be years before any oil we drill is available.

b. Our supplies, current and future, are incapable of handling our insatiable thirst.

yes, we will have to drill.. sad, but what choice will we have? We don't have an alternative that the public will accept. Wind, Solar,Bio diesel,natty gas... we've been led to believe they are all to expensive.. well duh, of course they are. Because we aren't geared towards them.. and the turn to them will cost and cost a lot.

There are some many new 'green' homes being made with wind and solar.. and what they don't use they give to the local grid.. that house over here that Extreme Makeover just did, has  cool new design solar/wind turbine on the roof, it will power the house most of the day and for part of the night they will need to use 'grid' power.. BUT what it produced during the day, is so much and they dump it into the grid for 'credit' that at the end of the month.. even using the grid, they come out ahead and owing nothing to power everything in the 10,000 sqft house..

now, if they can be debt neutral on a h ouse that size.. regular size homes can actual benefit communities all together if each house had the same hook-up and amenities .. imagine, you have all those extra credit power-points, you can 'sell' them to a hospital or some other large building that needs more power than you, and you use less than what your system produces..

but nope, the start up costs are too much and oil is soooo cheap.. so let's just pretend the Oil God will make more and this is all just a bad dream..
