Michele Bachmann two dollar gas ... Will Jesus Help?

[Moab]

I think she will ask Jesus to help. But just in case Jesus is to busy helping other republicans out of their messes she might try these Ideas of mine.

Make the dollar smaller and call them Bachmann Bucks with the picture of Jesus on the front. Or like the grocery stores redefine size and make packages smaller and in this case redefine the size of a gallon the gallon smaller. Pray for the rapture and that will leave fewer people on earth and we'll have a gas glut. Collapse the world economy or tell the oil ministers to knock it off or we'll "Iraq your ass."

Whatever her secret plan is to end high gas prices ... you would think if she loves this country and people so much she would tell us the answer ... But we know the answer and it's drill every square inch of America .... and hope to get lucky and if she doesn't she can pass it off to god saying it wasn't in his plan.

PS ... Me hell I'd genetically re-engineer the dinosaurs breed them by the billions and bury them in the ground then wait.

Moab you should be the last person to speak of Jesus, now there is something you really don't have a clue about.

Silly children, gas prices will never get down to $2. There is nothing that anyone can do to make that happen. Not reducing production costs, not reducing taxes, not increasing subsidies, nada.

There is but one reason we have the gas prices we have . . . . Americans willing to pay them.

Actually, I thought of one thing. Mass produce vehicles that run on a fuel other than gasoline.

Personally I think we should have all of our cars converted to natural gas. Then you could fill your vehicle tank in your own garage, right off the tap already run to your house. Do away with the filling stations, or at least a very large portion of them. And eliminate the demand for gasoline to the point that it has little to no value at all.

But, the oil companies will fight this. Jobs would be lost. Tax revenue would be lost, though it could easily be shifted to the new fuel. But it burns cleaner, and is more abundant. And if our elected officials ON BOTH SIDES OF THE AISLE would pull their heads out of their asses . . . .

nah too easy

yes with over 50% of US homes hooked up to NG and 70% of new construction being NG homes...that would be so easy, it could have been done years ago.....must make too much sense........unless the gas supply and infrastructure were not large enough to meet the demand of both cars and home heating.....then the price would go up and NG's home heating advantage would disappear

and gasoline prices may actually drop for the peeps not on the grid

That is a good point, whatever fuel is used the price will go up as demand increases. so as a stricly economic standpoint, the only solution is to use less. But there are other advantages of switching to CNG that to me make it the logical next step.

Check out the Honda

[wubders]

yes...natural gas is not imported from the middle east.....your link said 85% is domestic

I just mean there could be tradeoffs with wide spread NG use in cars/trucks.....like it could cost another thousand /winter to heat your natural gas home.....likely it would still be worth doing

I think Tboone??? Pickens from Texas said we would need to beef up our production and pipelines to handle widespread NG use in cars and trucks....

It is still better than anything else we have now, other than conservation(walking and bycycling)
