No wonder the neocons love to smear Hugo Chavez. How dare he charge his own people 12 cents a gallon for the black gold? What kind of a rotten person is this to not let greed overtake his nation? Since our major supplier is Hugo how much profit are these thieves making on the oil we import from Hugo?:shrug:

Hey it's way up now to 15 cents. Boy they got screwed. LOL. Oh how I remember my first gal in 1958 was 19 cents. In 1965 we were getting pe-ed. it went to 27 cents. Now with all the inflation we can find today we should be $1.84. maybe $1.86. Not $2.87. Why is Iraq 30 cents? Europe is way up. However there consumption is down. And most of Europe has 2.00 to 2.25 tax 0n each Gal to do just that. Lower the use age.

Would be a good place for you to settle spongebob--cheap gas--except no one can afford cars---would be right up your alley--you couldn't bitch about the "self sufficient" as all would be in similiar pecking order.

--it doesn't take a rocket rocket scientist to figure which crowd is for socialism and why. Look at the voting demographics.

--by the way on subject of gas---I see prices are as high now as when oil was $70 a barrel??--but then again your party never said they had any solutions just complaints--hmm thats sounds familiar--

i have no party. every solution they ever have to curtail greed they have nitwits like yourself crying foul while you are ripping money out of your wallet supporting these greedy fuks. You see Dog that is basically the problem. All the nitwits that vote like you do ruin it for the rest of us because nothing will ever get done about it. As for living there i might check it out. The job i want to start i could live anywhere i want. I love to live in a place where my Gov't isn't anti worker. there is a reason americans are hated all over the world and its basically because half of our country supports greed, lies, fraud and are to clueless to realize it. Imagine how strong this country would be if we just had a new party that wasn't anti American worker but then again a guy like you still wouldn't vote for it. You would rather vote for someone who can easily manipulate you. Just like the word game they played with Reed this week. You were the first to run with it like the good pigeon that you are. Someday hopefully you will see how much of a fool you have been played but i won't hold my breath. Get ready to vote for Gulliani and all his divorces and his disturbing knack of wearing women's dresses just because that will be what you are told to do. I see your boys are applying the Biden plan over there in Iraq. Tough when you have no ideas and have to swallow your pride and once again take a democratic idea. Hopefully when i break bread with Hugo he won't tell me his country has a bunch of backwards ass hillbilly crackpots like we do here. Oh and by the way what was the name of that one Republican who so proudly bragged about sleeping with farm animals? Its on tape somewhere but i cant seem to find it.

there is and has never been a country with a better standard of living than the United States of America

anyone can do anything they want and become wealthy if they WORK HARD and MAKE GOOD DECISIONS

you can choose your career, find your path, and find your dream

this is because we have had a laissez faire, capitalistic system where FREEDOM reigns and the government has little control over one's fate

geez, 13 cents for gas in Venezuala, free health care in Cuba (of course you have to be rich to get an x-ray) dah-ta-dah....

we must put up a fence to keep the "common man" from running away from here so that they can live with such luxuries

you leftist communists are not only ruining the country but your complete idiocy reminds me why we have such spineless, stupid, pandering politicians in this country as we do who are taking this country down

take an economics class at your local college (provided it is not given to you by some communist freak) and learn how markets and economies work -- then put that to good use and make your own small fortune while WORKING (instead of toiling for 10$ an hour hooked up to your union while working at about 10% of the pace you could be working at) to gain financial security so you willl quit bitching and be happy (as every post some of you leftists make illustrates your own envy and greed)

If it wasn't for guys like us pointing stuff out and starting programs (like college loans)pieces of chit like you wouldn't be able to go to college. You would be run right over.

I can go along with doc saying America Best Standard of Living. But we better step up the pace or we may slip. We can start by not worrying about the Super Rich. They can take care of them self's. We better find out why certain health research is always blocked before we fall to third in health care. And why we still have close to 50 million with out health care over 30 million kids. This cost our health care and you and me more then all the law suit's combine do.

Agreed, best country in the world. Bush and Co. is trying pretty hard to tear it down. The rich have a fear of the middle class, we have taken quite a few blows these past years but we are still hanging tough.

Actually Stevie If you'll remember I don't think either party has much control over price oil--was just shaking Spongies tree with some spongie logic.

IMHO he only thing the gov/states can do to impact price of gas is via taxes.

--and Spongie my brother and I never had college loan--nor received a penny from parents--we went to college via GI Bill.

Dog i wasn't talking about you. Im all for working hard and i to believe my country is one of the best in the world but where i differ is when i think it could and should even be better. Not just let the chips fall where they fall. This country is so great it gives an opportunity for thieves that are power hungry to even set an agenda. That is the sad part. If there wasn't an opposition we all would be making two cents an hour if that.

SOME of the Right Wing " We Will Die in The Bunker with Bush" are upset because Chaves said Bush is evil.

If Bush was a real man he would tell Chavez, "no I am not evil, I just like sucking Saudi KOK "

It's not Chavez trying to turn our American Ports over to The Arabs. :scared
