Gas prices are Rising.

& they are Talking of a gas Tax hike here in PA

They must be preparing to soak us this Spring again.


WASHINGTON -- As more drivers change their habits and drive less, the amount of money available to make road and bridge repairs is shrinking.

So, a group that oversees transportation funding says its time to raise the federal gas tax.

Members of the National Commission on Surface Transportation Infrastructure Financing are expected to release a report later this month.

Then when they drive even less or
make cars use less gas
They will up taxes even more

they got to used to having the money in their coffers, now that oil has fallen, they still want the big money to come in, so they figure we'll still pay for it

And everyone talks about the corrupt political machine in Chicago & Illinois. I say our politicians
here in Pa. will take the backseat to no one in the country when it comes to thievery. Sad part
is, they keep getting re-elected.

Let me tell you something. There are 2 things that are certain in your life. Tax, and death :o Yeah, gas shot up almost 30 cents because of the "Israeli war" And of course, the people that started the whole mess in the 1st place, Wall Street had to brag about the rally on Friday, even though more gloomy econmic news streamed in. I need to get in on this "Hedge Fund" so we can over-imflate the price of oil, cash in, and run like hell while the world's economies colapse . I saw a documentary a few weeks ago on how, Wall Street hedge funders do it and get away with it. How does oil go from 150 dollars a barrel to 35 dollars? Well not because it really cost that much. Then you have my friend OPECC. Greediest of the greedy >:(
