Have to agree

Yeah I have to agree there. Unfortunatly a 30 mile trip to the office using a bike on a superhighway might be a bit stressful.

The thing I really don't understand is how the oil industry is so brazen to do this to people. With the Congressional hearings into their record profits recently they are just asking to get slapped with some kind of regulation. While China is using more oil and affecting the global demand you can't continue to benefit from government hand outs while sticking it to the taxpayers. I think that the oil companies need to seriously look at their business models and pricing before the government does it for them.

While I am the first one to say its not a crime to make a profit perhaps it is a crime to be accepting corperate welfare from the government and making your biggest profits ever. Hopefully at the very least the goverment will stop handing over our tax dollars to these greedy bastards and make them pay taxes like the rest of us.
