Question 2) Could you go 5-7 days without getting gas? I could not. Unfortunately, we get it about every 3 days.
I agree that it would be hard to go that long without gas. Maybe 3 days, either way it would dent the economy and the gas corperations. Im willing to sarcrafice what it takes to finally make a stand for something I believe in deeply. I have alreay let to much stuff go by easily in my life, im ready to make that stand. If it takes me going directly home after school, and only leaving for dinner for a week im willing to accept this. The consequences of 100 million + people not buying gas for a week would be unimaginable to the gas corperations. It could easily throw the economy for a loop, but finally we can say we actually stood up for something thats right. How many times a day do you hear people complain about gas prices? For me its easily about 10-15 times a day I am involved in such a conversation about the price of gas and how bad it is. Well its time to do something.

There is nothing simple about those questions, but I'll give my take.
1) God. I know that this is going to cause one serious stink on here, but it's my answer.
2) We need gas to the point where it is completely intertwined with our lives. It is the life blood of any modern country and unless it is some Amish country that I have never heard of, the country would fall into chaos. Besides, they would just raise their prices and get one hell of a profit at the end of the 5 days. On a personal level, people lack discipline and are a bunch of wienies.
I got two weird questions. Keep in mind, im young and have problay choose different lifestyles than many on here and think in totally different patterns.
Maybe they are not simple.
1) I have always wondered, who decides whats right and wrong in society? Each person stands to a set of morals of their own, or reflecting their group, so how does these set morals of how soceity should be and how its going to be get passed down from generation to generation? Like when people judge others for the actions that they do, or paths they have choosen, who decides whats right and wrong? And what gives people this authority to pass down their judgement as a set moral and why do we all decide to follow this same set of pretences?
2)Why have we not decided to take a 5 day getaway from the gas coorperations. Like why has no one decided that we as a nation must make a stand against these gas prices. I believe these prices are politics getting away with murder, if we as a nation did not buy gas for 5-7 days the companies would suffer tremendously and notice how serious we really are and would be almost forces to lower their prices. Why have we not done this yet?
1) The bible was the basic guideline for morals and laws followed.
2) Because people think this country is run by a bunch of nice and honest people. Don't you know...this is the best country in the whole wide world? This country does nothing wrong. It's the best. You should never challenge the government. They are in other countries right now fighting to free people...and to make it a better world for you to live in. And they have nothing to gain by doing so. Just pay the gas prices and just feel good that you are filling the pockets of greedy bastards.

But, we have to go to work...and with that commute, we have to fill up. Can't try to "make a stand" for something that really isn't going to work and risk our jobs.....

Ha. I appreciate the sarcasim, and the trurths.
Also, I understand it could go both ways but why do we just do everything we told and never question anything. These gas prices are ridiculous, they just are. I remember the hurricane season after katrina they pushed the cost of gas higher because their were chances of a hurricane coming again and they promised to lower them but they never did.

From what I've learned living here...you don't question authority. You follow the masses and act like sheep. Sorry kid...that's America in a nut shell.
