    i feel that this e-mail will just go through a computer program, pick
    up on keywords and respond back with whatever the pre-determined
    programed response. i don't understand what is really going on. it
    just seems to be with no real explanation other than the confusing
    reasons the media gives. plus, it seems convenient that they say sorry
    folks gas is going up and it just does again no reason other than
    because they said it. also, i know ceo's get bonuses on what they
    think might happen with the company; if it happens great if not oh
    well but they still get the bonuses. i heard that these oil companies
    are doing this too something about paper barrels vs. wet barrels;
    money to cover these bonuses has to come from somewhere. also, why can
    these gas stations charge say $3.40 one day and then the next day it
    is $3.45? they are getting an extra nickel per gallon when the gas in
    the tanks didn't cost that much when it was delivered. i know when gas
    goes down that the same thing applies however they have no problems
    going up fast but going back down takes forever.
    i heard some politician or ceo got 400 million dollars for pocket
    change? what is that about? if gas companies can give that sort of
    incentive they can easy off the prices. what about the exporting of
    gas? why are we exporting gas? we need to tax the mess out of that
    gas. if we are going to do this, then there should be a charge up to
    us; also, it should bring down the prices here in the states. next, we
    are making money from other countries by converting their money to
    ours so they can buy gas. all the above it isn't right when so many
    folks are having troubles. i can't get a new car can barely afford to
    keep the one i got running. i only use gas for work and to cut grass.
    i don't have motorcycles, boats, etc., make only the needed stops for
    things like doctors, food, etc. & i don't drive to just to drive. the
    problem with folks today is they these newer cars make life to easy so
    they don't really "bark". if they were all like the old days with no
    air condition, radio, mp-3, automatic transmissions, etc. people would
    only drive when absolutely necessary & you would be getting a lot more
    e-mails on this subject. plus there wouldn't be as much traffic,
    pollution and road problems. i know folks might say than how would our
    country grow without this technology & the such but just because you
    are moving doesn't mean it is progress. something needs to be done
    now. we can't wait for another election or if some other country
    decides they are not going to play nice with others. we have the means
    now and we need to use it and not put everything in foreign interests.

    sincerely,
    adam crane
