Fake boobs to throw in your face are not cheap.

Not sure where I might have inferred that, but everyone who pays taxes technically contributes so there you go. If you were suggesting voluntary donations? Yeah, I don't think so.

Maybe we should drill for our own oil instead of giving brazil 10 billion to drill in the gulf and shut down our drilling.
Oil companies only make 3-5% profit off their oil sells, I'm in the food business , I make 25-30% markup on the food I sell.. who's the bad guy

That is what's happening. Inflated price on whats expected. Which doesn't always play out. Then it takes three times longer to go down.

But would you pay $5/gallon if the extra went for fixing the potholes?

Most of our oil is domestic and Canadian, we get a fraction of our oil from the middle east. Just like anything, it's speculation on future prices, and nothing is worse for the markets than instability and uncertainty.

Give me free tuition for my children, free healthcare and a full retirement SS pension after 25 years of work like the europeans get. F*%k it, I'll pay $10 at the tank. But we don't get that and our tax dollars go to bailing out companies, weapons and space programs. Things like having an educated or healthy america is of no importance... and that's fine to FTW. But if its like that. Keep prices of gas down. N I'm not buyin a prius. That's garbage.
Pretty much, you can't compare a socialist democratic system to a capitolist one. Its apples and oranges and ideals are completely different. Not knocking capitolism either. Just being realistic.

This is literally 08 repeating itself. We didn't learn ****.

The US is not producing oil. Saudi Arabia is limiting oil production due to the unrest. Only countries who produce large amount of oil = win. Russia is producing at full capacity and making bank.
