I really don't get how anyone can vote for Mccain. He's promised us continuous war and to somehow worsen the already crumbling economy. Gas prices more than doubled in the 7 years since Bush took office, with Mccain you can expect 6-7 dollar gas prices before his term is up. You can quote the dagger on that one.

And what I really don't get, is, how is the country gonna function when Mccain has to stop running it every fifteen minutes to use the bathroom?

Fuck gas prices will be 6-7 by the end of the summer, they broke 3.80 today here, so negged!

And if any of you think McCain's a good moderate candidate take a look at his record in Arizona. When it comes to using federal money to fund public education AZ ranks consistently 48 or 49 out of 50. To me that speaks volumes about where someone's priorities lie. As far as being forward thinking goes there's few things that paralell public education in my mind.

If you think I am for McCain, read that ^
Not exactly my personal best interest.

i'm calling a crash in oil prices in the not too distant future.

i think a portion of the inflationary buble is due to parinoa over supplies and processing when actually were not even processing at 100% now and supplies are actually higher now than they were a year ago but the oil prices have risen steadily. but unfortunately, we will most likely go into recession before the correction happens due to run away inflation. it's already impacted retail and manufacturing and i'm sure will propogate through the rest of the economy before too long.

the increase in prices is of course also tied to the decreasing value of the american dollar and that part won't roll back, plus price of gas was pretty much fixed for a decade or so and there was an inflationary increase that was long over due but just like any other economic bubble that attracts investors with out solid reasoning to justify the increases in the market (tech bubble, housing bubble), things have to deflate and correct themselves eventually.

6-8 a gallon by the end of the summer seems crazy to me. if it does happen, better start stock piling now because vegan may get his anarchy.

[grimcity]

Hopefully my office will let me telecommute more often than not.

[Ronald Wilson Reagan]

But isn't a big part in the increase in oil prices related to the risk factor of getting the oil, since we are either enemies with or at war in most of the major Opec nations? I mean, even non-middle eastern countries like Venezuela hate us. Nobody wants to give us oil cheap, especially since we keep proving that we'll pay a lot for it. We went to war in Iraq thinking gas would go down to 50 cents a gallon, and the opposite happened (a Bush policy backfired? I know, crazy). When we pay for oil now, we pay for the overcharging crony contracts in Iraq. Oil continues making record profits, because they continue to raise prices and we continue to buy it without a second thought. Nobody questions what they do because we have two ex-oil executives in the presidency. I don't see how prices will drop without a dramatic change in course on our part politically.

Too bad the Iraqis arent able to keep their own natural resources..
Oil use is going to have to be phased out eventually, politically nothing will happen. Thats precisely why the situation is what it is. Why continue to rely on the government for such a change?
The market will create the shift from insane oil usage to whatever else is next.

Ideally the presidential race would be Ron Paul vs. Ralph Nader.

Is the Gipper for McCain?

Jamie who you voting for?

I've got a hunch who you are now. posted here before much??




according to our democratic senators, gas prices going up are due to economists speculating on markets in the FUTURE

Mine was: "Two words: Spandex, Trap Door"  In reference to my friends mom who wears tight ass spandex pants 24/7 and the trap door I'd be plowing through them with my dick on my way to her ass.

[Lumpy Oatmeal]

thats 3 words

Just to fully beat a dead horse until it can't be beat anymore:
I was talking to my friend about this and he said that you probably do pay the workers fairly in Mexico. According to him, the reason most big skateboard deck companies move to Mexico is to skirt environmental laws in the U.S. He said that the big ingredient is the resin. Apparently, there are some resins that you can't really use in U.S. factories due primarily to health and environmental problems caused by the fumes and waste. But Mexico has more lax environmental laws, so its legal and cheap to do. What is up with this explanation Jamie?

[Sleazy]

whoa, boards have resin in them? i've been throwing them away all these years

I like how cute Corey Duffel looks flying threw the air in his paint on paints while on an American made Foundation. We should all just buy Corey's boards from now on.

[I SUCK!]

First I've heard of this, we use the same glue as when our boards were made in the US.
(it's the same US vendor that most woodshops use.)

[mini greek]

Well my friend told me that the resin used in boards is made up all organic ingredients and mixed together by little nymphs in the forrest, and he also told me the secret ingredient is a sprinkle of fairy dust.  And my friend told me, so it must be true.  Ha, explain that Jamie...

GIPPER, the Resin is used in Chinese wood shops, one of the dudes that works here used to press boards for like 2 years, the dude knows alot about a skateboard how and where it manufactured and any lil nook and craney on anything and eveything about a skateboard and how its manufactured.  He's taught me alot.  we call it the "knowledge of nothing" cause it aint gonna get ya nothing, but its good to know.
