cost of riding SRX with oil and gas

it's a $1.23/litre in oshawa. that's $5.58 for a canadian gallon. $1.23 x 4.54 litres or $1.23 x 3.79 litres, $4.66 for an american gallon.
 
I stress about the price of gas for the truck, and stress about the cost to drive to work....... my truck stays at about half a tank to keep from stressing the fuel pump .....

my sled is always full!!!

I might skip lunch out durring the week..... buy the cheep beer for the week..... PB&J instead of "sit down" for lunch!!!!

BUT.... so long as the sled has gas........ I can ride if we have enough snow!!!..... and drain and dump if I run out of cash!!!!

LMFAO....... PRIORITIES!!!!
 
ya we pay more for our fuel in Canada and our good old goverment turns around and pays the US to take our electricity because we have too much. WTF. never mind lowering our price ,instead raise it and then have peak hours to charge more. they get you coming and going :dunno:
 
just paid for $60 premium and came home with a red jerry can and a half WOW! thats $1.24 a litre

1.384 x 3.79 = $5.25 per gal in montreal... it's amazing how that line between the north and south magically causes the cost of producing gasoline to go up that much... it wouldn't be because we're getting hosed by the government on taxes just like on everything else, it just couldn't be.

The U.S pays subsidies to oil companies in order to keep fuel prices lower.
This is done in order to keep the U.S economy floating.

The Yankees pay more for a lot of other things though. Just not to the government.

And they don't get near as much help from the people they elect.

Take a drive through Detroit. Really sad.

I've never heard such hogwash in my life. I live near the border here in VT and there's one reason prices over in QC are higher, socialism.
 
oil companies are subsidized in the form of tax breaks!
"But an examination of the American tax code indicates that oil production is among the most heavily subsidized businesses, with tax breaks available at virtually every stage of the exploration and extraction process. "
Thats a qoute from the new york times here is the link to read for yourself.

I don't see how paying less taxes = subsidized. So if the bush tax cuts were extended, I'd be subsidizing you?

nytimes = liberal, I don't have to read to know what they're going to say.
 
I see so you just know that oil is not subdized. I am always happy to read or research please post some facts or a link. And if they pay less tax on average than the same size business what would that be called? And dont worry I pay more then my share of taxes as far as Im concerned so Im prolly subdising you.
 
Im not saying its a bad thing. I have kids so I imagine single tax payers subsidize me by helping pay for schools and other things my kids use. I also work in an induustry thats main exspense is diesel fuel.

Sleigher speaks some truth here. I'm not dogging on the U.S. government, but we do have a mess on our hands down here. That's why right now I'm just focusing on sledding!
 
I had to wait 4 hrs at outpatience the other night with a broken thumb and one person ahead of me in the waiting room. When I got in a room i was separated by a curtanin next to a guy in a hospital bed (who had been there for at least 2 weeks) and listen while the nurses changed his cathader (sp?) eventually got him onto a commode to take a horrible dump which reaked, and then waited another 40 mins before they wipped his butt... 1 year ago, I cut the back of my hand quite badly (deep and about 4" long). I had to wait in the waiting room for 3 hrs with a blood soaked rag arround my hand. I ended up leaving before I got treated. They later called me to come back but I didn't bother bacause after I went through a couple rags and some tightly wraped tuct tape around that, the blood eventually stopped soaking through. I'd rather pay less taxes and look after my own health care. IN our hospital's current state, if I contracted a terminal illness, I'd die in my own house earlier, rather than take residence in one of our local slum hospitals and die there.

Wayne..ain't that the truth..my wife went thru the same crap..thought she was having a heart attach or stroke symptoms..called ambulance to take her there and she sat there like nearly 10 hours..as if they really cared..she finally called me to pick her up at 11 pm at night...what a piss off.Went thru it again ...this time I drove her there..wait was shorter ..like 1.5 to 2 hours..put her thru all tests and told her she was fine and to go home..Turn s out my wife suffers from depression,anxiety..She works night shifts,her best friend died just prior and this caused issues with her..wasn't eating..lost weight.BUT I find it hard to believe that the hosiptal does there tests and finds nothing wrong and tell you to go home..WITHOUT any suggestions or sympathy for you..that amazes me again.
If anything major happens to me..I will not go to the hospital..I'd rather die at home first then suffer there and catch another desease yet..and they say health care costs are going up..well yeah..from all them druggies that stab each other every other day...costs us big money for transport and fix the knive wounds...why can't them idiots learn to use a knife properly and finish the job..its killing us taxpayers to keep patching up these bums.We have had a least 4 stabbings in the last few days again...$$$$$$$

Next time she experiences chest pains, go to ER and complain about shortness of breath and blurred vision. Bammo. Out comes the wheelchair and a Doctor is looking at you within 3 minutes.
