Reflecting On The Societal Impact Of Unprecedented Oil Prices

The ramifications of unprecedented gas prices easily escape a cursory view.
Consider how many people will be stuck in traffic this morning across America because somebody tried to get to work with their gas tank on empty
How many additional cars will be left stranded by the roadside, burnt out and gutted because the driver could not keep up with the price of insurance and gasoline?
How many more days must be ruined and happiness turned to despair because of financial stress contributed to and assisted by rapidly climbing gas prices?
Any time one starts to engage with other people beyond their immediate circle then they are impacting lives in ways unseen.
I had a somewhat popular ebook on traffic shortcuts in Los Angeles. It sold a few copies. Too few! lol
I sometimes amused myself by wondering if I had steered anyone off their usual path to some serendipitous encounter, good or bad.
Take that small example and compare it to how many lives are affected in so many different ways by the out of control rise in gas prices
Life is a series of probabilities, causes which cause other things which lead us in directions that hold surprises. That is the plus and the minus.
So what really is the cost of rapidly rising gas prices?
And more importantly what actions do we have to take as individuals to cease being robbed by large corporations and con jobs?
Some may say that there is nothing that we can do.
But such people are already dead and they are just waiting for someone to come along with a shovel.
In today's world there are cures for cancer to be found if one does some research, just as there solutions to global warming, the environmental disaster of New Orleans and the respiratory ailments of the 911 first responders if one doesn't take no for an answer and the solutions applied, there is a solution on an individual level to emancipate us from slavery to the gas pump.
Did you know you can lower the gas consumption of a vehicle with water? A hybrid engine using both gas and water can be installed quite easily. A fully hydrogen based system can be implemented with just a bit of knowledge, resourcefulness and effort.
It is worth it in terms of more money in your pocket, a cleaner environment, a happier SUV and in so many unforeseen ways that could have rewarding ramifications that it really is wise to make the small investment of time and caring to get your SUV modified to a hydrogen system.
