WTF?! Doesn't The Environment Matter At All?

Bush Eases Environmental Rules on Gasoline - Yahoo! News: "President Bush on Tuesday ordered a temporary suspension of environmental rules for gasoline, making it easier for refiners to meet demand and possibly dampen prices at the pump. He also halted for the summer the purchase of crude oil for the government's emergency reserve."

I have a solution for summer energy price problems: don't USE SO MUCH FUCKING ENERGY!! How about you not use your A/C in your house except when it's above 80 degrees? How about you try carpooling to work and maybe even the grocery store? How about you not mow your lawn to putting green length every two days?

How about you actually consider modifying your lifestyle instead of saying, "Eh, this environment thing really cramps my style: I'll just ruin it so that I can still be a fat ass lazy son of a bitch."

This is why our political system doesn't work: the only interests that end up getting satisfied are short term. This is wrong and time will prove it to be.
