Truckers' Trucking Forum/Message Board - The Premiere Truck Driver Forum

Politics Do Not Pass/Pass With Care. Today's truckers are far more educated and cognizant of the issues regarding politics due to the sharp increase in talk radio, and various trucking news media sources. Talk politics. Do truckers like politicians?

The EPA hasn't allowed a new refinery to be built since the 1970's....shortly after the EPA was created by a Republican. That is an indisputable fact that even Republicans admit to and whine about themselves, except they are whining about the Rockefellers not being able to build a new Refinery, not Joe Average on 40 acres in Oklahoma.

Y'all must be boneheads like Sarah. Drilling in our own backyard won't lower the price at the pump, so long as the monopoly oil companies control the process from beginning to end.

Remember when Bush seduced y'all with $0.99 a gallon gasoline if you went along with his plans to invade Iraq and depose Saddam (the man who tried to kill his daddy?) Hussein? LOL, $5.50 a gallon under oil man Bush's reign. Suckers!

Neocons are gluttons for punishment.

Another problem, Dougher says, is that refiners operate under seriously constrained capacity growth: A new refinery has not been built in the United States since 1976, and more than half of the country’s refineries have closed since 1980. Further tightening an already strained market, some refineries are scheduled to close this year, including a large Shell refinery in California. Even though existing refineries’ production capacity has increased slightly each year, the gap is growing larger between what is being produced and what is needed. “And it’s not going to get any better anytime soon,” Dougher cautions, because companies are not likely to build new refineries.

While a new US refinery hasn't been built in three decades, US refiners have been expanding facilities in recent years to keep pace with fuel demands and to take advantage of one of the most profitable periods in the industry's history.

Your BDS is shining...brightly...

It ain't about "price per gallon"...it's CALLED "INDEPENDENT"...your leaders and followers believe in and support COdependence which goes against everything this country was founed FOR as well as being childish, immature, selfcentered and selfish. Not to mention egotistical, narcissistic, SAD and PHONY.

It's "called Independent"? No, it's called Independence.

You must be one of those annoying people who put up ads saying that the engine "needs rebuilt".....no the engine "needs to be rebuilt".

This is America, speak English.

Oh really so what did your beloved democrats propose to do to solve the high gas and diesel prices? Oh that's right hold pointless after pointless hearing to try and blame the oil companies. I also see that anyone who doesn't agree with your logic is an automatic bonehead. Let's see, we open up our areas for drilling and watch how fast OPEC would drop prices to keep that from happening... after all they wouldn't be able to fund their terrorist buddies would they? Hmmmm I wonder when Bush said gas would fall to 99 cents a gallon if we invaded Iraq? Can't seem to recall that but after all Jim Bob since I don't agree with you, I must be a bonehead right?

My beloved Democrats? I'm not a Democrat nor a Republican.

I especially do not believe in the [LINK POSTED BY MEMBER] Only Members Can View This Truck Forum Link. of liberal vs conservative.

I used to be a Republican for a short time when I was young and had stupid beliefs that I was going to make millions of dollars if I just worked hard enough. Reality and life experience shattered that silly notion.

OPEC isn't worried. Toyotas and Hondas do not burn crude oil. Oil must be refined and the capacity is nearly maxed out.

Most of the oil money goes to support the Arab population in Saudi Arabia, not "Terrorists". They get welfare basically, but lots more welfare than Americans get $2,000 or $3,000 a month for every family and rent is cheap there. Saudi's don't even have to work for a living.

Alaska I would assume wants to be like Saudi Arabia, already every person in Alaska get a welfare check from the oil proceeds. I'm sure they would like to increase it to the level of the Saudi's checks.

It was implied. I remember that lots of people gassing up were saying they supported the invasion of Iraq because it would mean cheap 99 cent a gallon gas and it would get rid of Saddam.

So why not open up more capacity then? Why are you so opposed to that? No you said Bush implied it, not regular working people. Really, so if I'm a Republican that means I should be an automatic millionaire? I never thought that, I always felt I should go out there and work to make a good living not stick my hand out and say give me free money. You really believe all that money the Sauds make off oil doesn't go to terrorists? I'm not implying that you want a free handout but many people here do and they believe that people who work should pay for them to have it.

OPEC isn't worried. Toyotas and Hondas do not burn crude oil. Oil must be refined and the capacity is nearly maxed out.- Huh? They don't?
