Rob1647545496 Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 George Carlin's Solution to Save Gasoline: Bush Wants us to cut the amount of gas we use... The best way to stop using so much gas is to deport 11 million illegal immigrants! That would be 11 million less people using our gas. The price of gas would come down..... Bring our troops home from Iraq to guard the Border.... When they catch an illegal immigrant crossing the border, hand him a canteen, rifle and some ammo and ship him to Iraq ... Tell him if he wants to come to America then he must serve a tour in the military.... Give him a soldier's pay while he's there and tax him on it..... After his tour, he will be allowed to become a citizen since he defended this country..... He will also be registered to be taxed and be a legal patriot..... . This option will probably deter illegal immigration and provide a solution for the troops in Iraq and the aliens trying to make a better life for themselves.. .... If they refuse to serve, ship them to Iraq anyway, without the canteen, rifle or ammo..... Problem solved..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kinkinhood Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 Best way to lower use of gas: Put people on essentially gas stamps limiting the amount of gas they can buy in a weeks time. If they have to go over hit them with an 80 cents extra per gallon. Such would lower the amount of gas used by america, lowering out demand and need of it.

LJ Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 The U.S. consumption isn't the issue. Any gas demand we cut is IMMEDIATELY sucked up by the Asian countries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted May 23, 2008 Report Share Posted May 23, 2008 +1 I have been saying that on here even for some time now.

With the olympics coming up and the huge earthquake that just happened, don't look for prices to drop anytime soon until the Asian gov't jump their prices to curb their unlimited subsidized demand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
