Americans, would you pay $10 a gallon for gas?

Question

That's what it costs in the UK.

Answer 1

No, which is exactly why they should charge that much.  There are too many cars on the road, emitting benzene, a known carcinogen, NO, a chemical which contributes to the formation of ozone which causes asthma, and a whole deadly cocktail of c**p that you don't want to breathe.

The higher the gas prices, the more I--we all--must bike and find cleaner modes of transportation.

Answer 2

they had it to good to long should be $40 a gallon then they get good cars not load a c**p ( usa cars dont hold road/most are auto manaual do more mph

Answer 3

No I wouldn't , but, I know here in the states that tankers were being told to haul fuel or set around with it, rather than putting it in the inground tanks at gas stations and then the powers that be were telling us there was a gas shortage.

Is it possible that is happening in the UK?

  We are also seeing an increase in flour and other store bought items as well. All because of the fuel they say has to cost more.

   All I think we are doing is lineing  the rich mans pockets who are in government and the fuel business.

I have a friend there in England that was upset by the high prices there in Enland. And I agree with him that it is crazy.

But there is a good side to this if you are a follower of Christ.

It means that the wheels have been set in motion for the anti-christ to take control. Just read Revelations and you will see, that more of the end time promises are coming true.

  We are already set so we can see the two witnesss left dead in the streets who come back to life after 3  1/2 days. If anyone thinks I am kidding...read Revelation ch: 11 ver: 1-12.

Verse 9 especially says that all people of different races and tongues shall  SEE THEIR DEAD BODIES, and the will celebrate as if it were Christmas; giving gifts to one another.

In chapter  8 ver: 11 And the name of the star is Wornwood,  we now have a star named (Wormwood). Revelation  ch:7 ver: 9 is speaking of those of us who are raptured from the earth before the great tribulation comes.

  The rest I will let you and others seach for. Here are clues:    

"chariots that run like lighteing and jostle one against another."  Is that not our modern day cars? They are pulled by horse power and we sit behind the "horses" as we drive them...right?  And seeing and hearing shall be swift like lightening.  Is that not our cable tv's, world wide radios, the internet giving us the abiltiy to know and see things in an instant?

   Only the Bible contains this info, written a good 2000 years before hand. Unless there truely is God in Heaven who knows and sees all things. How could this have been told to the writters of the Bible what would happen after they were dead and gone?

  If you know and believe Jesus is who He claimed to be, rejoice for He is coming soon. If not you will only have fear and worse than that when He comes. Even the deamons know and tremble at His name, but they, like satan are destined for h**l. Which by the way was not meant for man. If you go to h**l it is your rebellion to His outstreached arms that puts you there. That's why His arms were stretched out on the cross. To welcome not only the repenant thief beside Him but us as well.

Answer 4

The UK is a royal pain to deal with in terms of chemicals in general. I will distill my own ethanol before paying that much in today's dollar value for gasoline.

Answer 5

If I lived in the UK and made the kind of money that the Brits make, I'd be fine with that.

Answer 6

Sure. I would also sell all my cars but one, then buy a horse and five gallons of gas each month. The gas would go into my remaining 1963 CJ3B. No joke.

Answer 7

Yes, because we cant or wont do any thing about this problem, we can only protest over stupid thing that really matter to a very few people, but on a large scale matter like this, we will only sit there and ask question about what we can do and that's as far as us Americans are will to do about getting the prices down. When you compare us to other countries like Europe, each county in Europe is so small you don't use much fuel to get places, weres America is so wide open it takes more fuel to get places. Just my 2 cents

Answer 8

I would walk to work and to the grocery store.  I would only drive if I had to go a long distance.

Answer 9

Of course, Otherwise i can't get to work.

Answer 10

If I want to get to work I would have to. ...but it gas got that high I would very seriously consider the Aptera at 300mi per gallon. If I can't afford it I might actually consider a large scooter or small motorcycle.

Answer 11

I would but Only if I bought an American made V-rod(motorcycle) and pumped Alaskan gas into it from a non-BP or Citgo gas station.

Answer 12

yes i would but i would use my car like i use 911

Answer 13

Hah. No we wouldn't, Brit.

Answer 14

Yes, but you have a different transit system than we do.
