What is the REAL solution to lowering these gas and oil prices?

Question

check my stats, i always select the best answer.

Answer 1

Sorry, there is no solution

Answer 2

Drill the United States 4 trillion barrels out of Alaska, and off the cost of Mexico. Every country (including RED China) is slant drilling from the gulf of Mexico into the U.S.....thank your Democratic Congress for that one.

Answer 3

There IS no solution. Unless we find an alternative energy source. Whoever is making all the money on it can't be stopped. If it was fixable, it would have been fixed a long time ago.

Answer 4

What the government is not releasing is that we have "tons" of oil in reserve here in the U.S.   Reserved for what? A crisis?  If they (they oil companies/government) would tap that reserve, we would have oil for decades, and by then new innovations would be more practical.  Many say, build better gas mileage cars.  Great idea in theory, but how many Americans can really afford a new car right now?  But in 20-30 years...sure maybe.   I hope this helps.

Answer 5

There is not just one simple real solution, it will have to come from many different directions.   First anyone that votes and goes to polls in what is it November, should refused to vote for anyone.   The voice of the people will be loudest if no one at all votes.  Take a stand and let our leaders know we will not just keep giving in.   Also leaders in the consumption of gas and oil big business like trucking industry and transportation industry(airlines), railroad,etc will all have to join forces all at one time and just shut down operations till out Political leaders and oil leaders get the hint.  Is all this impossible? No not at all but it will be impossible due to the fact that all it takes is for just one person to say no it wont work we just have to live with it.    Solutions yes but mankind wont band together to make solutions work.    Alternate energy sources are out there and can be valid real solutions but mankind once again will fail at developing them and getting them to us in a reasonable amount of time.   Hey even if we do get alt sources of energy the new sources will more than likely be just as costly.....the developers need to make billions of dlrs here to and get tons of tax breaks for development  R&D funding.    Good luck to all of us in US.

Answer 6

Of course alternate fuel sources is an answer but the auto manufacturers have been buying up the solutions for years.

The best way we consumers can battle the high prices is to buy our gas f/ the smaller oil companies. If enough ppl do this the large corporations will feel the pinch and lower their prices ... all oil companies will have to follow the lead.

Answer 7

get a horse.

Buy a bicycle or motorcycle.

Work from home.

Stop using all this fuel.

We have to lower our demand.  We should have thought about this 40 years ago. Now it's too late.

When we went into Kuwait in 1993, we should have demanded we would rescue them for 40% of their oil wells.

We are a STUPID nation that never learns. After all, our politicians are Texas oil men!  Bush.!  Bushwhacked !!

Answer 8

make cars run on water.
