At first glance one sees gas prices in the range of $4 per gallon across the country and just winces and tries to think of happier things but the impact upon lives of the people affected has widespread ramifications that go beyond the obvious.
Start by thinking of how many traffic jams are being caused across the nation because some poor fellow couldn’t afford gas and hoped there was enough in their engine to get them home while the gauge showed empty
How many additional cars will be left stranded by the roadside, burnt out and gutted because the driver could not keep up with the price of insurance and gasoline?
How does one quantify or measure the number of ruined days, accidents, arguments brought on by skyrocketing gasoline prices?
Once a caring person starts having an effect on outside of their friends and family they soon recognize that their actions have ripples.
I was selling an ebook online which shared secret shortcuts to avoiding the legendary traffic in Los Angeles. It sold a few copies. Too few! lol
I would occasionally wonder whimsically if I had sent anyone off their usual path to some serendipitous event, good or bad.
And following that same logic, how many lives are affected by outrageous gasoline prices?
Life is a series of causes affecting other causes in a domino fashion while each piece has an option to fall, not fall, where to fall, in other words each piece in the dominoes game of life has self determinism but there is still this causes affecting causes factor which can lead us in directions that hold happy and scary encounters. That is the plus and the minus.
So, again, what really is the price to society of the outrageous gasoline prices?
And how do we, as individuals, as pieces in the dominoes game of life that still manage to have self determinism take the right actions so as to cease being robbed by large corporations and their greedy operations?
Some may say that there is nothing that we can do.
But such people might as well be dead and they are just waiting for someone to come along with a shovel.
There are modern miracles there are cures for cancer to be found if one insists on looking, just as there solutions to global warming, the environmental waste of New Orleans and the health problems of the 911 first responders if one doesn't take no for an answer and the solutions applied, a solution exists also to emancipate us from slavery to the gasoline pump.
Did you know you can lower the gas consumption of an SUV with water? A hybrid engine using both gasoline and water can be installed quite easily. A fully hydrogen engine system can be implemented with just a bit of knowledge, resourcefulness and effort.
It is worth it in terms of more money in your pocket, a cleaner environment, a better running automoblie and in so many unforeseen ways that could have rewarding ramifications that it really is wise to make the small investment of time and caring to get your automoblie running on a hydrogen system.
