When I saw this little sticker on a gas station pump last week, I thought it had to be a joke. Thieves are running around town cutting fuel lines on cars to nick gasoline? Oh, I believe that every once in a great while some desperate person might try to get a gallon or two. But as a trend big enough to merit an orange warning sticker? That seemed implausible: gasoline is heavy, after all, and even just a few gallons could be bulky to carry, making it kind of hard to run from Officer Bluto. So I laughed when I saw the sticker, and thought it was so funny that I’d take a picture.
I shouldn’t have laughed. It’s happening all over the place. These gas thefts from passenger vehicles reflect the combination of economic hard times and the increasing value of energy. People adapt to the times.
Nothing is ever a joke with you liberals, everything is just a disaster according to you.
Kenny, that’s ridiculous. I think that marriage equality in Massachusetts, for example, is not a disaster. Neither is teaching evolution in high school science classes. Social Security has also been very effective.
I would rather take care of my own money. I dont need the government to take it out of my check to spend and then tell me there is a Social Security crisis. I think anyone can agree that the everyday American citizen can save there money a lot better than the government.
