What if we had those long lines again at the gas stations today,like we did back in the 70s.Would there be a few killings,funny that its now 40 plus years after and nobody even mentions a gas shortage.Remember the limits at some stations,wait a couple of hrs and only getting 5 dollars of gas,what about waiting for a long period of time and finding out that they are closing right before you pull up to the pump,or finding out that they accept cash only?Would you have the patience to do that again?What was that all about anyway?

Ummmmmmmm for 5$ worth today a feller wouldnt even need the car, He could just stand in line wiffa gallon gas can. I remember them days when you could only buy gas on even numbered days of the month no matter how you were paying. I bleve Our government was involved in that right up to their eyeballs.it was an ill thunk out plan to reduce our dependence on foeign oil.
