    No, we're not re-living Carter -- yet. But it's coming, and will make Carter look like a Sunday School teacher. Oh, wait a minute...

    And yes, widespread gas lines are next. Except in Texas, Colorado, North Dakota...

    But they'll clamp down on that toot sweet. Because everyone needs to suffer equally, you know...

    Which very well could lead to a black market here in Colorado. And Texas, and North Dakota...

    Hyperinflation does seem to be on the horizon. I feel we are re-living Carter economics! Are wide spread gas lines next? Decades of talk, and the government still stands in the way of energy independence and cheap energy which contributed to our past prosperity.

    Hey, once hyperinflation hits the US, that will be a good deal!

    Because by Tuesday, hamburgers will be twenty bucks...

    “I’ll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today… what? Wait… $16 dollars! Popeye have you got any spinach left?” Wimpy O.A.
