Oh my goodness! Parents won’t be able to pollute the environment with their babies’ used-once, dirty diapers? However will humanity survive? God forbid parents have to switch to cloth diapers.
As for air travel, humanity survived just fine before air travel and I imagine we’ll be just fine once it becomes appropriately priced to include the amount of environmental waste it produces. Of course, faux-conservatives like AN won’t be able to fly thousands of missiles and other weapons over to Iraq in an unjust war but I think the U.S. will be OK. Actually, if air travel becomes a thing of the past, terrorists will have a much tougher time getting into the country.
Again, I see nothing but benefits to society from higher gas prices. Everyday I cheer oil to go higher. Today it was only up a buck or so. Not great, but better than no increase at all.

Man, you’re funny. My life style can easily afford $10-20/gal gas, so it won’t hurt me one bit. But I’d love to see what the American public will do to the government if this happens. I grew up with cloth diapers, so cloth diapers doesn’t affect me, but it sure affect a lot of the average American.
What’s the point in bringing up the war? Did I ever said I support it? My gosh, talk about putting words in people’s mouth. Do you really think Bush wouldn’t attack Iraq if gas price go through the roof? I don’t know what you’re smoking but I sure want some. If air travel becomes a thing of the past, we’ll just go back to the 1800s again. Ain’t that a pleasure. I grew up in an environment that’s not that far off from that environment, so I can deal with it, but can you?
Majority of the people already agree to drill more at today’s $4/gal. I love to see what the American public will do when it gets to $10/gal. I can’t wait to see this oil bubble burst and see you burst into tears when that happens. This is nothing more than a bubble and we all know what happens to bubble… (no they do not leak out air).
