Diesel is well over $5 a gallon here. The truckers are buying gas on the black market out here
It is effecting EVERYTHING from milk on up. At some point poeple will be paying $200 for chimney sweep service.

has some kind of red dye in it that is illegal for any vehicles
that operate on the roads.

Jeanie, I don't understand it all but I know that if truckers
get caught they can be jailed or severely fined.

Good advice, -they make both swimming shorts and Bermuda's both knee length and longer-get some good walking sandals.

I think you can find some modest summer wear for men just about anywhere.

Re: HELP!!!! Dress Code for Beach/Cruise

I only paid $2.50 for a gallon of milk Friday, and it was not on sale. Having 2 pregnant DIL's and kids with children 5 and under, they are alloted so many free gallons of milk and other goods from WIC. Cheese, eggs, juices etc.

It's crazy! We are all starting to REALLY see the effects of this.
I think that the powers that be are doing this on purpose to
lower our country to 3rd world status. It's all part of the one
world government

I have heard of people hi-jacking fuel trucks.
We have a refinery down the road about 5 miles.
Read a lot about people being found there in the middle of the night trying to steal gas.

Yeah but if there is any truth to what you are saying, I could see how some would take the risk...who would have ever thought that gas would be at 5$ or over for diesel?

People have to feed their families.

I didn't know that farmers got cheaper subsidized gas, that makes absolute sense though.

You know we drive way out in Merced County country side now to get to our new church and pass all kinds of farms.

Yes the farmers and construction companies do not pay the road tax on gas and diesel - which is a lot!


The DOT will check the color when (if) they pull you over and fine you if it's red.

It's gone nuts!

People are stealing gas from their neighbors' cars in the middle of the night

I see this kind of thing happening more, it's just crazy!

I think this whole thing about the price of gas rising is pretty serious and very scary indeed.

This could be the beginning of events, that we havent thought could happen before.
