		<description>I just discovered this new site that's giving away a $100 gas voucher, for free!

Can you believe the price of gas these days?

In my area it's currently over $4.75 per gallon, and all signs point
to it going even higher, very soon.  I remember the days when gas used
to cost $0.99 per gallon, but those days are long gone.


This site delivers on its promise too, and you can receive your gas
voucher for the gas station of your choice.

Here's how it works:

1.  You visit www.ebusinesswiz.com/freegascard
2.  You complete one of their participating offers (I completed mine in 5 minutes).
3.  You get your free $100 gas voucher!

Simple as that.

I'm taking the $100 I'm saving on gas and taking my family out to a
nice dinner.  What will you do with your $100?

Don't miss out on this offer. There's no telling when they'll take it down.</description>

		<description>I'm certainly feeling the pinch of higher gas prices but there has been more progress lately with greener cars being developed. In Southern California Honda is leasing several hundred hydrogen fuel cell cars to people.  I just wish that we could find a greener and cheaper solution sooner rather than later.  Not only because it's good for the environment but because it is so important to get off of foreign oil.</description>

		<description>Keep in mind our "fuel shortage" is political rather than real. We have 40 separate designer blends of gasoline that must be made in batches and shipped via pipeline in batches all over the US at exhorbitant expense. The Ultra Low Sulphur Diesel (USLD) now mandeated by EPA is very expensive as well. We have too many regulations to allow building of new refineries. We will not drill ANWR or the continental shelves. We have put major oil fields off limits to drilling.

Add to all that the fact that India and China are exempt from the strictures of KYOTO. They will continue to build and burn at an ever increasing rate. We are in competition with them for an ever dwindling supply.

Our shutting down will simply destroy our economy and culture. The Asians will burn the fuel if we don't. No net gain for the "environment".

Then, keep in mind that our government is hopelessly in debt. Our dollar is being systematically ruined in a vain attempt to deny this little fact. Every time the FED (not federal and not a reserve) drops interest rates or shoves another large "stimulus package" into the economy, the price of fuel (and everything else) goes up in dollars.

There are no free rides. There is no free healthcare. There is no free education. Attempts to violate the laws of economics will result in abject poverty and the destruction of our economy and our culture.

And the Chinese amd the Indians will continue to burn unabated.</description>
