Go Beyond Wondering What They'll Do

June 16, 2009 by David Eggleton

Prices for gasoline, slowly on the move for weeks, now exceed $3.00/gallon in parts of the USA.  Is it still just a game they play, corresponding to the approach of summer drive time, or is this the beginning of the ascent from which prices won't fall again?
 
Do you have an idea of what you'll do without when fuel and petroleum product prices go up and stay up... and go up some more?  Do you have an idea of what it will take, under those circumstances, to obtain something you cannot do without?
 
What gives you hope that they will be thinking always of your wants and needs?  Who are they?  Can you budget some attention, time and energy for working with us to make new arrangements?
 
Would you leave port on a cruise ship lacking lifeboats?
