text: any idea's on what to do about the high cost of gas, and the ceo of exxon makes $100,000 a day, no wonder?   you know as little as 80 years ago there we very few cars, no one had hydro or gas bills to pay, we burned wood to keep warm, or stuffed hay into the attic or walls. maybe the amish and mennonites are right? do we really "need" these things? i'd say we go back to the pioneer days, only for the fact that most of us would die trying, which may be one way to lower the population problem as well? hmm, kill two birds with one stone as it were. its all a scam, the u.s. owns kuwait and iraq, takes almost 90% of canadas oil and natural gas, then there's alaska and it looks like iran is going to be next. why was gas like only $1.20 a gallon before all this then is what i would like to know.
