something you guys are forgetting, the crude comes from
their country so yea their gonna pay $.05 a gallon for it, but what you don't know and what the news doesn't report is how the average hodgie (iraqi guy) will stay in a fuel line for at a minimum of 20 hours for a max of 5 gallons of gas and they do this 2 to 3 times a week. or they can buy the fuel on the black market and pay approx. a months salary for the same amount of fuel. Plus the fuel is close to 60 octane where you're getting 93.
$10.00 U.S will feed an Iraqi family of 6 for 30 days, most of you will spend that much or more for one meal on an average week day... was going into Iraq a mistake, yes and no, yes because of how we went about doing it and no because the people generaly need help. Here are some pics of a typical Iraqi neighborhood, and a little reminder that while we sit here reading this our soldiers are dying over there every day. This Hummer was hit with a road side bomb. All three soldiers died. Think about that.
