Apparently we (Americans) drove 11billion less miles in March than we did the year before. A 4.3% decline which was the sharpest decline ever measured (measurements began in 1942 during the height of WWII and rationing).

I find it extremely ironic that here in Alaska we actually produce about 1/8th. of the entire US supply of oil and have the highest gas prices despite only having about 1/400th of the US population. Our governor is talking about distributing $1.2 billion in energy relief to the residents when she should actually be looking into building another refinery to lower costs or investing the money in alternative energy sources.



A very important US Document wrote:
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.
