- Instead of complaining, let's do something about it! But what?
- Stop driving OR start finding the cheapest gas (independent outlets, ARCO, Valero) using websites (like iheart.com) that say where the cheapest gas in any area is.
- Alcohol Can Be a Gas! [in normal gasoline-powered cars] proves author David Blume, with no special danger.
- Alcohol Can Be a Gas!: Fueling an Ethanol Revolution for the 21st Century (David Blume, Michael Winks, R. Buckminster (FWS) Fuller
- Favor gas stations that charge even a penny less than their neighbors. This collectively drives prices down as stations chase customers.
- Improve efficiency: tune up, check tire pressure, clean air-filter, purchase economy vehicles (avoiding the electric vehicles being forced down our throats), using synthetic oil (made from natural gas), slow down and drive sanely rather than erratically.
- Read alternative media to find out the Big Oil (the petroleum industry) always PLANNED to get US gas prices to an average of $5 a gallon in the U.S. We're almost there.
- It's surprising it took them this long to maneuver us there. Why? There already is much greater fuel economy technology (easily exceeding 50 MPG, like the decades-old Honda CR-Z that reached this milestone in the 1980s).
- Elect someone better than a member of the Money Party with its two wings, left and right (Democrat and Republican). Go Green, or any other third party.
- Realize that these high prices are due to price gouging, not reality. For example, the day this past week that the price of a barrel of oil went down, prices went up by a record amount. It's speculation, hoarding, and panic buying -- promoted by vendors out to gouge the public because of lax oversight and regulations.
