since we have someone here suggesting that $10 a gallon in like Europe would be great - it would encourage people to dive less (lol)...
why not also tax the heck out of groceries, and raise them to the price point they are in Europe. Why would we want a higher standard of living, if we could just all take our expendable income and hand it to the Government? They know what's best for us

Oil policy has a direct effect on our expensive geopolitics, out of control health care costs, and environmental pollution. The last thread is a legitimate discussion. This thread is just trolling.
How many more banal questions will be posted here this week?
NO, higher food prices is inflation - hyper-inflation, which many are suggesting in these higher price threads, will put this nation on it's knees. Why not cut off public water supplies and force us to buy bottled water at 20% higher prices? A simple sack of BS will cost $100. You want meat, bread, fruit and veggies? Oops...real foods will be $$$$.
Triple the cost of electricity and BHO's end game is nearly full circle.

Let us know when you never take a bus, train, ship, plane, truck or car ever again. And, while you're at it never buy 1 single item that has been transported using the aforementioned.
Additionally, I challenge you to donate your electric devices, heating, and cooling systems, and basically anything that needs to be plugged in.... given electric generating plants are powered by natural gas, diesel or coal turbine.
have a nice day, and enjoy your back to basics life You wouldn't want to be caught being a hypocrite, now would you?

Not sure where you get the idea that food is expensive in europe, this may be true for some european countries but I can say it is not true in the UK. When I first moved to the US I was shocked at the price of most staple grocery goods, I had been paying 22p (about 35cents) for a loaf of white bread, the same over here was $2.99 or more.
Don't judge a country by its high gas price, remember the majority of vehicles in the UK get higher mpg than cars in the US, diesel is priced close to gas as their small 1.8 diesel cars are capable of 60+mpg (Yes I have first hand knowledge of this)
IMO the cost of living in the UK (property prices aside) is much lower than here in the US

Sure it would be healthier to starve and get super thin and kill off the frail old people who couldn't even afford that cat food.
