Change of Domain

I have spent the last few days changing all of the urls that point towards this page. I am still using the blogger host but I have changed the domain to my own. Getting my own domain was fairly simple and really cheap. I got it from go daddy and only spent 10 bucks doing it. Transferring the domain name in blogger was really simple also. But changing the url in all of the programs that I am a member of was another story though. Eventually I am going to switch to my on host and start using word press. But I am a dummy when it comes to the word press platform. So I took the advice of a friend and opened a free account at word press to try and get familiar with there program.

The Government has started sending out checks for the stimulus package. What a real waste of time. With the cost of gas reaching 4 bucks a gallon, some will be lucky to get a couple of tanks of gas with their check. But the oil companies should profit. The Government is basically giving us money to give to them to make more profits.

Can we stop the price of gas from sky rocketing? Sure, all we have to do is stop buying it or stop buying as much. Let all of these investors keep shoving money into it just to find that we stand our ground and stop making them rich. After they start losing money it will teach them a lesson. But that means that we will have to sacrifice some of our daily pleasures for a while. But would it be worth it, in the long run yes.

It seems that all of the politicians have a answer for everything that is going on in the world except for gas prices. The media only knows how to report the price of gas. They need to start talking about what they are going to do about it. I myself though about buying me a donkey to ride around town, but with the price of corn going up I would not be able to afford to feed that either.

The people that are making the real money on oil is OPEC. There is also the increased demand (China is now GM's fastest growing market).
The best answer to oil would be the allow drilling in the US where we have LOTS. Unfortunately, politics is preventing this, same thing with refineries. This is where we are being sold a load of crud (not crude).

Yea, if we say banned all imported oil, we could first handle the gas, then let the free market develope new gasless cars.

BTW, what do you think of this corn to gas thing.
