Re: [RC] Who to blame for high fuel costs - on Ridecamp??? - Barbara McCrary
I think we've discussed that one, too.
I agree, and wish there were a way to reduce oil
consumption. There must be a way. I don't like selling the soul of
our country for oil. It's a dangerous policy.

I am one of those "so-called" environmentalists and I don't advocate a
one-day boycott. I don't think that will solve anything.
I also don't think that opening up new oil fields is an effective
solution to address skyrocketing gas prices. That will only address the
symptoms and not the root cause of the issue which is dependence on oil.
In my opinion, we need to invest our efforts in alternative energy
solutions and reduce consumption.
Everyone has their own opinion of what should be done. And we're
each entitled to think and vote independently. But I'm not
sure why we're talking about this issue on Ridecamp. Aren't we
supposed to be talking about horses? What's next, capital punishment?
The so-called
environmentalists and the politicians in their pockets want you to got out and
boycott the local gas station. That way, you won't see that it is them,
not the oil industry that is behind this problem. It's the old "Texas
Two-Step,"
dazzle 'em with your
footwork and they won't see you taking the wallet from your back pocket.
