So not right. Thats one thing I like about Obama he plans to do something about that. Its unjust. How the hell can they rake in all this money when people are struggling to make ends meet because it cost so much just to drive to work. Ive been tryin to get people to carpool with and it just isnt working.
Live it up oil pigs, makes me sick.
One of my best friends works in the oil and gas industry doing title leases for the gas companies, he and his coworkers make ranging from 60-80 thousand dollars a year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just for doing title work, getting lease agreements from land owners its insane. He offered to get me a job there making that much money, and I wont. I make way way way way less then that a year and it sounds so tempting, but I am not sellin my soul to the devil for money.

That's it! I am officially boycoting driving! Luckily, I live in a small town so I can walk or ride anywhere I need to go. I shouldn't have put it off so long anyway. It's just that with two toddlers it's a little more difficult to pack groceries into a bike trailer. :) Just one more reason to long for the farmers market to open (it's closer than any of the stores). I'll just have to plan so I go to the store for the heavy stuff once every two weeks and cut down our trips to see the family to once a month. On the plus side this should help with my weight loss goals. :D

That was a vote that was not wasted. He has done pretty well in elected office.
