but you need those fat people to stay fat.. that way they die quicker and the population numbers drop faster.

THere is a projected number that within 10 years India will have a bigger population than China and that that time China's population is expected to slow down. Too many indians.

Its so we dont fill the coffers of those A-rabs and war lords in Africa.

Its not about using less fossil fuels so we dont run out its so we decrease our dependence on foreign oil.

Like i proposed we reduce the speed limit so it increases mpg of all cars on the road. Forcing new cars in the future doesnt help immediately or fix the fact that theres gas guzzlers on the road now.

I realize a reduced speed limit is impossible to implement which is a shame.

Thats cus you live in a retarded state where the speed limit is 55 or slower.

Driving in Oregon is terrible. Everyone there sucks the fat one and has no skills on the road. Its pathetic. We have no shortage of horrible drivers in CA. I was almost smashed into when a lady changed lanes with one foot between our bumpers with no blinker.

Increasing fleet mpg tomorrow does nothing to reduce our dependence today. My plan does that however unrealistic it is.
