Don't add new taxes in times of recession and high unemployment. That extra money available for people to spend right now is a good thing.
Send a stimulus check to everyone who paid taxes last year.
The CEO of gulf oil was on tv predicting 80-90 cent /gal of gas soon..
I remember people on this board saying we would never see it under $2/gal ever again.
True. I said it myself. Then again,we weren't in a recession at the time. If it goes back to 3 or 4 bux and we are still in the recession, we will be in deep doo doo.
Opec is between a rock and a hardplace for a change bastards want to cut production but if gas goes up and deepens the recession they shoot themselves in the foot as they are killing the goose that keeps on giving golden eggs.

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
