The USA is the biggest OIL HOG on the planet.

The american people are getting EXACTLY what they deserve. I have no sympathy for them at all.

Americans always have money for war, maybe they can use some war money to buy shoes to walk to work.

Okay people wake up and smell the bull! Gas is not cheap, but oil for your car has not gone up as much as gas.

Did you know that they still have not paid for the EXXON VALDEZ. They just keep taking these people to court and getting it lowered. Thank our Judges for that one.

There are 6.5 billion humans currently devouring the planet's resources as fast as they can.

The USA is a sick and sad nation that needs to slow down.

Or we could just steal everyone elses oil and fill up our rotten hearts with oil.
