26. one thing not everyone
that has to buy the old cars soon to be SUV's is a drunk kid or a freeper some of them are going to be low income workers.
Let's think about it, about the only people not driving those things now are lower income workers seeing as parents can buy or let their kids borrow theirs,
drunks well I'm sure there's drunks that drive them now, freepers I've seen a lot of them with Bush stickers on them, and there are plenty of owners being aggressive in the darn things now!

When they are old and are all over the place guess who will be buying them low wage earners.
Won't that stink only low income earners will be able to afford those gas guzzlers that aren't even safe?
Damn lucky duckies and under *Bush the number of lucky duckies is rising.

That's one thing about being low income if you need a car and there isn't any kind of mass transportation you end up having to buy a cheap car and usually the cheapest ones are big and guzzle gas.

How would I work on fixing that problem? I say we work on getting some serious 'mass transportation' in this country!
Course, if gas keeps on going up like it is who's going to be able to afford to drive the darn things?
We could always buy them up make them into art for 'display' then we could sell them back to rich people. :) and buy ourselves a fuel cell car :evilgrin: stranger things have happened.
