Default Capitalism
You gotta love it. Winter is coming we need to raise prices. Summer is coming we need to raise prices. Oh we dont want to produce as much we gotta raise prices.

I remember filling my bike up next to a guy with a huge SUV. He says, "Man, gas prices are getting outrageous!" I said, "Yeah I know... I have to pay $10 to fill up my tank now!!! That's ridiculous! Can you believe? Ten whole bucks!!!"

He drove away first, I peeked at his pump. He was over $70.

If the US would ever switch to the metric system, it would be the best day ever. As a scientist, I couldn't possibly hate the imperial system more than I do.

I'm all for the metric conversion. It would be a little wierd to get acustom at first but it is such a better system.
