Posted By: Richard In Response To: Hypothetical Question for Everyone.... (Becky!)

Greetings,
I am not an expert but I do watch those who make that claim.
Here is what I partially know --not necessarily understand
[1] Due to the type of additives that have to be added fuel is going to go up until the end of May
[2] One reasonable person who studies this says you can expect gas to be 5.00 within 60 days
[3]There seems to be a lot of crude but not refined stuff
[4] Some experts are blaming our government and environment type folks for the lack of refineries that we need.
[5] Politicans are pointing the finger for the cause at the wrong agency
[6] Others are pointing at the billions of dollars in profits by the oil companies
[7] Don't expect any relief in the short time future
Well, you get the idea--who do you believe and when do you believe them.
Personally, I believe that $5.00 a gallon is coming --just how quickly I am not sure.
More than likely. our problem is not enough refineries and the world is using more gas. The demand is going to go up and not down
Time will tell us

PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures. Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so. We are not responsible or liable for any claim arising from the content of any such discussions or postings or for any error, defamation, libel, slander, omission, falsehood, obscenity, pornography, profanity, danger, or inaccuracy contained in any information contained within such locations on the Site.

You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual. We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials.

In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
