Average earnings there are like $5 a month, and they can't get HBO.
I'd say you had it better.

I’ll piss a lot of people off here. I’m with Tony… Screw them.

The Iraqi’s should be GIVING their gas away to us for the next few years for liberating them from Saddam.

But we can’t be pulling oil out of the ground more and more each year and pretend that it’s going to always be there to do so. Screw the Middle East by finding alternatives to petroleum.

If they invented fucking non-fuel devices, the whole middle east economy would pretty much crash over night and they'd all be screwed!

I wish we could do that already and get the fuck out of the Middle East. Hopefully we kill Sharon on the way out. Along with Arafat. Both of them deserve to die.

you see the LOL of it all is that there is non-gasoline technology already out there OR being worked on at the moment. Military tanks don't run of fuel at all.

The day the mankind sucks the last remaining fuel/oil from the earth, we will be already driving around in Deloreans that run on leftover pizza and empty milk cartons.

People who pay income tax. Which obviously means, not you kid.


people who pay income tax are pissed that a country that they supported bombing the fuck out of for a bullshit reason is paying 2 dollars less for their insanely smaller-than-america gas usage? this is one of the fucking best things to happen to them since we VALIANTLY LIBERATED THEM FROM SADDAM

also speak for yourself, not ALL tax payers give a shit like you. others have perspective.

Meaning that they'll take your hard earned cash to make it cheaper for them?

Dude, thats grounds for an invasion if ever there was one.

I think people are missing the point here.......we buy it from Kuwait for $1.50, then sell it to Iraq for 5c. Its a bum deal :(

Anyways, screw hydro cars and solar cars. The real way forward is the air car. Finally we have a mass produced car that runs on compressed air.

Sure, it only does 60mph, and the tank needs refilling after 150 miles or so. But for daily short commutes its perfect. You can fill it up using the air-pump at a gas station, or in the comfort of your own home.

Obviously you use electricity to compress the air into the tank, but the fuel costs are far less. Ultimately the plan would be to use solar power during the day to charge a battery that refils your car when you get home at night.

Oh, and it uses vegetable oil for lubrication. It currently comes in variations of a 6 person 'people carrier', a taxi, a van and a pick-up truck.

Its the way forward, and I think Mexico City have ordered 40,000 cars to help reduce inner city polution.

Liberating? Iraq is pretty likely going to civil war soon and it still is a fucking war zone.

Seriously, the best way to handle the Middle East is to get away from the Gasoline Combustion Engine as soon as possible. Then the lack of US money going to the Oil producing nations over there will destroy their economy, and prevent:

A) A need for US involvement ever again. They can do their own thing and live the possession free lifestyles that Mohammed aspires to.

b) Their wealthy relatives and offspring from coming over here and living "fat", taking full advantage of the luxuries and women of the great white Satan.

And I don't want to hear it from people of Middle Eastern decent, because I am part middle Eastern, so fuck you! :mrgreen:
