С такими смешными ценами на бензин они еще чем-то недовольны???... Зажрались..

[cherniavska.livejournal.com]

А у вас сколько? У нас - один канадский доллар - бешеные деньги:))

[froken-bock.livejournal.com]

Только не говори, что за галлон :))).

У нас в пересчете 1.9 - 2.1 CAD за литр.

[cherniavska.livejournal.com]

У нас тоже за литр - 1.02, но у вас и расстояния не такие как тут?:))
У нас в день 100 км только туда и обратно, а Сузуки, сволочь - не экономная!

Вот и неча бузить, надо переходить на мааасенькие машинки с масенькими двигателями :))). Тут все давно перешли.. :)))

[cherniavska.livejournal.com]

И детей туда некуда сажать... Мы же не на форде какомьнибудь ездим, а на приличной японской машине..как мы думали..

[froken-bock.livejournal.com]

Я, конечно, не гомофоб... :))) Но в таких машинках дети и не предполагаются :)))

Это сейчас - последний писк моды..у нас тут в деревне. Я посмотрела - всего 16.000 тысяч, в принципе, если мне права получить - то могу себе вместо фолксвагена сделать своей мечтой ейту машинку:))

[erdweibchen.livejournal.com]

Ага, а то Смарт в Европе мало стоит, щас.

[cherniavska.livejournal.com]

Ну у вас там и других маленьких машин много:))
Меня вчера А. убедил, что Тойота Терцел(как у нас раньше была) за такие же деньги с 4 сиденьями и багажником, а бензина ест не намного больше чем Смарт. И ведь прав!
Зря-зря мы ее поменяли!

Watch out what's gonna happen next day, when everybody will rush to buy gas. Guess what? Gas stations will run out of stock. Some gas station owners will increase the price to slow down demand.

It's not going to work unless people stop spending gas that day, i.e. not drive, don't touch lawnmower, chainsaw, boat, airplane, etc. And, if they don't drive they most likely wont go shopping, movies, restaurants. That would impact retail business. So, oil companies are just one piece in the puzzle.

On the other hand, if people do so and oil companies incur loss they would pass the loss on to customers by increasing prices.

So, I don't believe methods like this would help to decrease gas prices.

yeahh, I was told that this email has been circulating for years and called "stupid" for forwarding it:))

You are right.. I believe in reducing dependence from cars rather than in fighting the oil companies:)) The funny part is that we have our own oil and gas in Alberta, this is why people do not understand why they have to pay so much for something that conmes from their own province:))
