I've driven I-10 from Phoenix to Tuscon....no fucking way would I drive that bullshit 55. For those of you wanting to drive 55, then drive 55 and shut the Hell up.

Sorry for the language and the anger, but it pisses me off more than just about anything when people decide what is best for everyone else and want the feds to change the laws of the states and assume more power over the people.

Plus, this isn't even a short term fix. You want gas efficiency, fucking take all the energy you expend on surrendering our rights and fight the car companies to build more efficient cars and put your money into companies that are working hard on finding alternative fuels..... don't fall into the trap that government must control the people.

FUCK YOU!!!!!!!! Spend the energy, time and effort on ways to truly HELP BENEFIT THE PEOPLE NOT ADD TO MORE FUCKING LAWS AND FEDERAL CONTROL!!!!!!!!!!!!
