Finally, sensible talk about what really needs to be done! Ration Gas.

At least the Europeans are considering a workable, proven method to address material shortages caused by WAR. A 15% cut of use would really stabilize prices and availability to essential uses...like food production...rather than vacation drives etc.

I suggested this months ago and was met head on by the DU "free enterprise wing of the Democratic party."

Rationing worked in 1942-5, it could work today. This needs to happen with Natural Gas and Gasoline.

How about you go **** yourself with a piece of barbwire?

For the last time, we are not Europe. As much as you muppets worship Europe, or at least what traits you want to worship of Europe.

3. I guess the planet boiling isn't reason enough.

No. No its not. And its not boiling. Its called summer. Grow up. 

Several muppets chime in, but for the wrong reasons. Mostly because they would lose in the midterms, and it would can whats left of old Joes term. Thats the only reason they think its a bad idea.  :whatever:

Hey ignorant and very very stupid DUmbass DUchebags, china is building coal fired power plants at record breaking speed. This year alone they will build 8% of our total coal plants. Until that is recognized, suck a wet greasy turd out of my B-hole.

The lack of any thing resembling intelligence at the DUmp is astounding.
When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.

So cutting supply stabilizes the price?

Pretty sure it doesn’t work that way.

I don't knw know why the primitive thinks that gasoline rationing 1942-1945 "worked."

It was implemented to save rubber, not gasoline.

     Food rationing is more likely, and sooner than anyone thinks. Farm reports are not good.

1. Propose rationing gasoline, Democrats, and see what happens in November.
2. Tomorrow, I'll be going with some of my family on a vacation to our vacation cabin in Canada, driving all the way up (We live in Florida). It'll be our first time making it up there in three years, due to the pandemic closing the border two years ago and my mother having a severe health crisis last summer that prevented us from going up last year,  and I'm going to enjoy every moment of it. Suck it, DUmmies.

Amazing to me that they want you to stop driving your car, turn off you air conditioner, stop eating meat, ride your bike to work while they fly to their beachfront home every weekend on private jets and then have the gall to lecture everyone on this so called "emergency".  :whatever:

Please! Please! Please!! Please!!! Please enshrine gas rationing into the Dem Party Platform!!!

I don't think the Dems would be that stupid, but I've notoriously under-estimated Dem stupidity these past few years.

IIRC, there was a war going on and gasoline was also needed for things like airplane, tanks, trucks, and jeeps.
