Answer 1

I use teleportation. It beats the heck out of gas prices; I'll tell you that. But it's hard to learn. You have to travel to a distant galaxy for training.  Good thing I had a lot of frequent flier miles. Plus I am good friends with Xenu. He hooked me up with a good round trip.

Answer 2

It effects everyone, it takes a lot of money out the pocket, that we need to use for food and other necessities We need to get a much better mpg  on all our vehicles, as the price goes up and is still climbing. Manny families with young children will have a struggle getting enough food on the table.

Answer 3

overall, high gas prices are damaging to the us economy and its citizens!

it is not just YOU paying higher prices, it is everyone in the united states. us residents are going to pay higher prices for everything because of higher gas price mainly because oil is the backbone of our economy.

things like plastic are made from oil. have you used anything plastic today? for example, your computer in which you typed out this question contains a lot of plastic.

have you eaten today?  well, it takes oil to grow crops, to harvest and process them and to bring them to your supermarket.

do you use electricity? most of the electricity generated in the united states use coal or natural gas. coal we have. natural gas we have but it is found with 'oil' as well.

do you work or does your spouse work to earn a living?  well, high oil prices raises prices overall in EVERYTHING, which means that it cuts into the profits of EVERY company, which cuts into your paycheck, which lowers your standard of living not only because of a decreased income but because prices of everything rises and decreasing your bang for your buck.

Answer 4

Since I work for an oil company, I love high oil prices.  My company stock is through the roof and my bonus should be humongus!!  Woohoo, keep buying that high priced fuel!!

Answer 5

High gas prices suck, I drive sixty miles a day for work and my husband has a driving job. Maybe it doesn't affect you, but it does affect the middle working class such as myself.

Answer 6

There isnt really much we can do...Just wait until something happens.  And yes, something is going to happen.  You think the economy is bad now?  Wait until gas prices go up a little more.  We will be the new China, riding mopeds and making shoes for money.  Most college grads are having trouble finding work.  I know a couple friends with MBAs looking for decent jobs.

Say hello to Amerchina if our government doesnt step in.

Answer 7

Boycott an oil company. Exxon-Mobil rakes in the most profits so show them we mean business. We'll force them to use some of their profits to explore for oil..then on to the next high profit taker.

Answer 8

I like them. With my new job working part time, making enough that it doesn't phase me. I do some commuting around the state, and the car that I have is fun to drive.
