I have never supported this war, and never will. I have friends over there, and I still think of it to be a complete waste of lives. But this discussion isnt about that.

Would I support rationing? Not a chance in hell if it was forced upon me.

If they were to ask us to do such things in what we can spare, sure I'd have no problem at all with that. But as it is I allready only buy what I need, and if they feel that they can tell me what I need and do not need because some other person half way across the world that signed their own life away to our military needs it too, well, it doesnt work that way. What if I run a business that is 100% depended on vehicles, and this business is a public service allready. Who are they to say that those in Iraq need this fuel more then I do? Both are doing a public service, both require fuel, so because they signed away their life means they are more important then my self?

Selfish? Highly Possible... but thats just how it is. I didnt choose for this war to happem, I never vowed a pledge saying I'll support whatever stupid actions happen from our so called leader. By all means I'm not going to give up what little I allready have because someone else feels they need it more then I do.
