As far as the bonus divide it out among all the gas consumed, it doesn't make even a tiny impact on the price of fuel.

That's partially due to the fact that they are an exporter of oil. And I would think worse case scenerio, if the price has nearly doubled in the past year, as ours has, then they are paying a wopping 20 cents a gallon. Maybe I should just move to Canada or Venezula? Maybe then I could afford to fill up my vette!?

Its about $3.90 here near the Nation's Captial. I no longer drive the Corvette during the week. Purely weekend warrior now. I plan to only fill up 12 times a year, or roughly once a month. I don't care how high the gas goes, I will never ever part with my Corvette.

All I can say is this:
I agree the whole gas thing is totally bs from anyway you look at it...bottom line....
Food people can't afford it.<----cause GAS
Gas people can't afford it.<--------cause GAS
People not making enough money now cause companies aren't selling<---cause GAS
Layoffs, companies going under, bankruptcy, credit card companies showing multi billion losses, banks showing huge losses, unemployment skyrocketing, people can't find or get jobs, truckers ready to strike, anyway you look at it....if things keep up like this I don't give it 5 years before none of us won't be driving our vettes anymore. The US will be in such a mess as a country that people will be rioting and stealing like no tomorrow.
My opinion....it all started with Clintons fair agreement trade act with the Chinese....which by any means....was so far from being fair, I can't even type it.

I think if we ALL woke up on Friday Morning, armed ourselves and just started marching to D.C., I think we would see some changes. As long as we keep taking it, nothing will ever change. My .0002 worth.
