Fucking cock suckers that Gouge prices!!

Gas prices were hitting $6 a gallon at 4pm central time And they are thinking they might go further here in Indiana!! The Mayor of NY(Guliani) had to say that the people there should not take advantage of the people there tomorrow! Price of food etc should not increase hugely or they would call the police etc. Gouging is going to run rampant, but they wont allow it. Gouging is already going nationwide

these are the last things to worry about right now
the value of the lifes that are lost cant be compared with the extra money spent on the gas prices right now

So your saying its OK to gouge people because thousands are dead? Thats the reason NOT to gouge. People who gouge are far more heartless than those complaining about it. Is looting ok also?

Well nobody better complain if you do. This isn't the time to complain if someone's robbing you. In fact, right now there are 2 men in my living room stealing my TV and raping my dog, but i'll get pissed next month.

Interesting thoughts... Even Rudy Guliani had to say that the people that are in NY shouldnt charge more for food and drink! And if they do, the police WILL get involved!

While people dont want to admit that some americans will take advantage of this situation, THEY DO! How can you explain $6 a gallon gas prices??? How would you like it if your host started charging you $6 a gig for transfer??? That is just as possible because of the major pipelines going through NY!!!

Bottom line is the law of Supply & demand is a law far stronger than any law our goverment can impose. You can complain & whine about it as much as you like, but a better idea would be to prepare yourself, rather than depend on the government to bail you out everytime.

$20 in canned food will last you 2 weeks.
Dont buy fucken freaze dried shit! get stuff you would actually want to eat, then if you don't need it in a situation, you can still eat it normally.

Gas, SHit how hard is it to keep one or two extra 5 gallon cans in your garage or shed?
cost you another $20. Rotate it occasionally.
(Comes in handy sometimes, you dont have time to run down to gas station before work, & half of us have lawn mowers)

Water bottled water last like 2 years, water filters are $20. In worst situation nearly all of us are close to a lake, pond or swiming pool.

I'M not agreeing with price gouging, but the bottom line is they own it, & you want it. Bussness is about getting the highest possible price the market will bear. Gas stations aren't there to hand out charity. When, the U.S. is dealt its largest blow in history, & the future is slightly uncertain, then that possible price is pretty fucken high!

I hate those sons of a motherless goat bitches!

Mayors and Governors all over the country are making statements on the news saying that if you find a gas station gouging you for $5 or $6 dollars (or anything else ridiculous) a gallon, that there WILL be police action.

Not my opinion... the news.

in my town (of about 1,500 people..small ass town) the price of gas is $1.80..which is 'normal'.

however, about an hour away from us, prices are $5 / a gallon!

Me & my man filled our truck up before prices go up tomorrow.
