@RedOct,
There is really no other allternative transportation for most of America, we could go back to horse and buggy! Yeah right! We have to drive our cars we just need another fuel source.
I have a book that the ATF would love to relieve me of, how to make methane gas at home from your household garbage. I have the blue prints for the simple machine to build out of things we have all seen in your local hardware store, start making your own fuel in a matter of 2 days 1 if your really on it.
I miss my Montana friends, they made their own alcohol,and beer, grew their own tobacoo, amoung other things. The ATF doesn't want us to have that little freedom. We have not needed oil for a long time already, but Opec and all the other oil companies would be broke dick without us needed consumers.
In the 60's a man designed a carborator for a Lincoln, it got 30 miles to the gallon with this new carb., the ATF and Big Brother buried this guy, they bought the patent and still have it. It is all set the way "they" want it to be. While we stand idiotically by and watch them ---k us every way they can. We can dream I guess, that is still free.
