DOES ANY BODY REALLY CARE?


I am so sick of listening to the news telling us before the first of July we should expect to pay somewhere between $5.00 and $6.00 p/gallon gas!

What is happening to our country? Gas prices, Food prices, foreclosures controlling the real estate market...on and on. The sad thing is that we (the people) are just sitting here going on with our lives and when you see people being interviewed they are shaking their heads but smiling and scrogging their shoulders...OH WELL... life goes on they seem to think, I guess???
What is happening to our country people???? How much longer are we going to just shake our heads and put up with all this?? PLEASE USE YOUR BRAIN AND VOTE. Think about how today's events are or will impact your life and take the time to educate yourself on the issues and the people we are electing to run our country what ever side of the fence you are on.
Don't just listen to your TV as your educational source of information. Take the time, get educated and then VOTE for the Changes we so drastically need!!!
Thanks for reading....sorry to be so direct but I think it's time we UNITE and be PRO ACTIVE for CHANGE.

It's no fun paying that much for gas and higher prices for groceries and everything else....but the benefits of living in a free country where we are able to drive where we want when we want seem to outway the negatives.

I get mad sometimes too when I go to fill up but then again, I am grateful that I get to live in America where I can chose to do what I want. And compared to Europe where their gas is around $8.00 or more, $4.00 doesn't seem to be too bad.

To answer your question "Does any body really care?" Yes I think a lot of people really care. However, I disagree with your post in regards to the rise in gas prices. It's not the President's fault nor is it something Obama or McCain can fix. Oil is a limited resource. When the demand goes up so does the price just like with every other limited resource. Also, the value of the dollar is down which has an effect. I think the short term cure is to conserve oil which will lower the demand and the long term cure is to find alternative fuels.
