Since prices are just incentives to direct resources to their most productive use, the rise of gas prices should be an incentive that changes your state of thinking, and open you up to different means of transportation. I bet if gas prices we're still that low, E85 production , hydrogen, electric, hybrids... etc wouldn't have been started, and the gas price would actually still be that high its just we'd be paying through taxes instead of directly at the pump.

    Actually Rizz's comment was one of the brightest.. your comment is very stupid considering how you started it.

    Do you even know how the process works? By your rationale gas in Alaska should be under $1.00 a gallon considering that is where we drill for oil but coming from someone who spent 18 years there I can assure you that is not the case.

    Want to know why? Cause we sell it to other countries A lot of you dumb asses don't read before you post or grasp a good understanding of the subject at hand. EVEN IF WE DRILL FOR OIL IN THE UNITED STATES IT IS STILL BEING SOLD FOR PROFIT TO OTHER COUNTRIES!

    It is a GLOBAL COMMODITY, furthermore even if ANWR was opened up it would be at least a decade before that oil hit the market.. hardly a quick fix.

    People like Rizzler that grasp the concept get it, decrease dependency rather than increase supply.
