Folks here who live on land where they are now drilling shale oil are signing leases for $2,500 an acre! That's no even counting the 20% royalties for the oil.

There's millionaires being made every day around these parts.

Just not me.
$2,500/ month?

You got 200 acres for them to drill on, then here's $500k and we will have a well pumping oil in a couple of months. Then we will give you 1/5th of the market value of every barrel we pull out of the ground at $100+ a barrel.

It adds up quick!

I remember dad being uber pissed when gas went over $1 for the first time a number of years ago.

It's just rediculous,and those idiots on washington just want us to get fuel efficient crapboxes. Sorry morons, that's not gonna help. They've got oil, it's all we can use, therefore they have a monopoly. if they want x amount of dollars, they're gonna get it. If we use half as much fuel, they'll charge twice as much. Stop spending money on legislation for fuel efficiency and build me some damned hyrdrogen stations and refineries!

They want us to stop using cars altogether so they can keep us under control. The whole go green campaign is nothing but a scheme to bring us back into the caveman days.

And that, my friends, is the whole story summed up in 2 sentences. Its nice to see that there are still a few kids out there that can overcome the brainwashing that is taking place in today's educational system. Better not say that on campus Nate, you'll surely be ostracized, or maybe even expelled. And you'll never get laid, oh wait, never mind.

Strong dollar. Safe haven security. Debt to GDP ratio under control.

Its the new method of control. Ignore the voter, ignore the laws on the books enacted by the voters and their representatives, don't defend/enforce existing laws.
Do an end around of cap and tax by instantly blowing several trillion dollars in a heartbeat (skipping the obvious "****** rich" racist joke), which makes the dollar worthless.
Hence commodities & oil spike, and you force the 'extreme green thing' in spite of a balanced approach that honors the will of the voter and financial common sense.

We're talking gas prices. You know the stuff you have to put in your mustang to make it run?

you know im actually super disappointed with the focus beacuse the problem has only gotten worse.

It died on me last friday at a stop light but i was able to turn it back on. Taking it back to the dealer tomorrow.

On to my question, if the problem is never fixed can i get a swap and if so does it have to be a focus?
