I got a feeling it won't end until we find a reliable replacement for it. THEN prices will fall like a rock

Gas 3.56 for 93 octance here in Southern Kentucky.

What makes it feel even worse is the next county south of mine, 93 octane cost about 3.35

Hell look what the price of fuel is doing to grocery's!

If gas would go down cost of living all together would go down.

WE EVEN LOST OUR ****** DOLLAR MENU AT WENDY'S BECAUSE OF GAS PRICES!

reading that is terrible I can't believe we're settling for 3.20/ gallon, even that is UNBELIEVEABLY overpriced. I remember when it was like 1.25

Guys, I've been thinking long and hard about our current situation as discussed on this thread, and the only rational solution I can find is an uprising in sensationalist violence, and apathy towards the current powers that be. Let's face it things are only going to get worse, perhaps if we act out now we can change the course of the future. I don't know about you guys but there is only so much I can tolerate, they've raped us of our fair priced gas, they've spoiled our dollar menu, free basic cable is coming to an end... how much longer are we going to bend over every time the government gets horny with greed? ... Anyone seen MADMAX? Will we act when that becomes our future?
