(btw, USA is not the richest country in the world, to whoever said that. i'm pretty sure that per capibeacta, it may be Norway. not 100% sure tho.)

I woke up from last night and then I see this..
see this perosn who ressponded had some backup to his point.

I was thinking also about how europeans are paying alot more for gas than USA was for past years.

In the end the rich will survive and the poor will not and the middle class will be stuck with no profit and have to work to survive. USA won't go to pieces but then again pres bush said us 80s 90s born people getting no Medicare when we are mad old. SO gas by the will be probably 100$/gall but there will be more electic cars for buy and I will probaably get one.

Already in some states along the Gulf like Arizona, New Mexico, California etc..it's $4 to $5 (even almost $6) a gallon. Here in Michigan it's anywhere between $2.99 and $3.50 and rising. Within two hours, I saw the gas go up $0.20 after my first day of one of my classes today. It is projected to be up to $4.50 or $5.00 by Monday, imagine what then what it will be on the gulf coast?

This Hurricane will eventually (and is) affecting the whole country and will continue to. More and more people i've talked to think we might be headed into a depression...and with two wars, unbelievable gas prices, and this unthinkable hurricane and an already teethering economy...this might be true. Another thing is diseases, as doctors i've heard on the news say that there might be diseases that these people might contradict that we haven't even heard of. With the people being moved out of the area (they have to...they have no choice), it might spread....disastorous...

roughly $8.26 here. And you think you have it bad, ours is constant

yeah, I know you guys aren't used to it being so much, but you'd realise how bad it was (due to the taxation of it) here all the time. My mums sold her car cos her work is 2 mins walk away and cos we can't afford to run it, with the insurance rates, price of MOT then this, it's impossible for anyone on a low wage
