Cause they are burning you.In Canada we are paying79 cents a litre for the cheap stuff and 90 for the supreme brand.
Yea from what I understand there is a problem with some pipe line that runs to Chicago, plus new EPA gas standards, add in the summer season and OPEC. Then the result expensive gas. We still don't have to pay nearly as much as people in Europe.
This whole idea of a missle defence system seems silly to me. First off I doubt the US would ever launch a first strike against Russia. Second I would not want to trust my life to some gee-wiz system that might not work. Third, lets say 60 billion dollars is spent to build the darn thing. What is going to prevent someone from putting a bomb in a container on a container ship headed for the US. Finnally lets say the system is built and it knocks out of the air one North Korean rocket. What does the US do then, still go ahead with nuking North Korea and kill many people because of the dumb decision of there dictators?
As many as 23 new graves appeared on the cemeteries in the villages of Zandak, Alleroi, Dattakh and Zandak-Ara of the Nozhai-Yurt district of Chechnya overnight to Monday, a spokesman for the United Grouping of federal forces said.
The military think the graves belong to the rebels killed on Sunday as a result of the federal aviation and artillery strikes, the spokesman told the Military News Agency.
According to him, the airborne strikes alone eliminated four guerrilla strongholds in the Nozhai-Yurt district, a mounted separatist gang near the village of Dattakh and a camp in the vicinity of Tsa-Vedeno (Vedeno district). The strikes were triggered by ground reconnaissance troops.
