Hahaha I have three  :biggrin: :biggrin:

Yes yes I know you like big cars. For my taste you've been doing wonderful cars back in the 60's. They are just beautiful. Ah leave that rail cars are more comfortable. But the fuel here is very expensive. 0,3 Gallon / 2$

How much of that is taxes? Our gasoline prices vary here as each state has a different tax structure. when I go from North Carolina to South Carolina I always fill up before I come back into NC as the  price is usually about $.25 less in SC.

BTW, you are a good poster. Glad to have you here.

I think taxes are 50% of that price. Those leftist gvts knows just how to tax people. Yes I know you have cheaper fuel than here.

Tnx for the compliment. But I have do admit you guys here are very very conservative. Ok I'll shut up  :biggrin:

How are the women there in NC?

Just check the name of the forum. No BS here. We are what we are - CONSERVATIVE.

As far your second question, I now know you are young. Many of us here would be described senior citizens so your question is not one we spend a great deal of time on. However, to get an idea about the ladies from the Carolinas I suggest you check out the Fox News Channel and catch Anna Koyman, Heather Childers and Ainsley Earhart. They are all from the Carolinas.

Uhh nice women.

You would really like Ole Miss (University of Mississippi). That university specializes in pretty women.

Interesting post Rd. But what moral decay do you mean?

           That is the first time anyone ever asked me to define moral decay in Western Civilization,
first in Europe, and now America catching up.  What I know about America I have seen with my own eyes or read about in papers and books so fresh they might as well as have been printed yesterday.  I'll treat America with an anecdote, after briefly talking Europe.

       First, Europe: When was homosexuality made legal in England? What was the percent of adult male heroin addicts in Berlin in 1920? How long has the Mafia been a prestige calling in Salerno? Have you been to Amsterdam, lately?  When did the police start fleeing like children at the hands of angry Moslems?  That's what I mean by morality. Rules, standards, courage, integrity.  Have you read the "Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire"?

      The USA: Sexual behavior once associated with Brazil, Africa, the Caribbean, is now in the American mainstream. The men are predators and the women are sluts. It's gotten so bad
we have had to legalize gay marriage. Drug abuse is rampant. Young people don't want to
work. Half the country can't even feed itself. That's pretty basic, isn't it? I mean the ability
to acquire the food to sustain one's self?  Anyone who lives in the USA and can honestly
say his neighbors are normal should consider himself lucky. Am I communicating a certain
viewpoint?

        "Conservative" really means normal ordinary values and behavior. By your standards
this forum is very very conservative. Why do you say that?

Exactly, Conservatism isn't a political movement, it's a way of life for us, like doing the right thing, even when no one is looking, returning an item someone lost and not expecting compensation, falling in a store, and not claiming victim, so as to sue for profit.
In other words, accepting responsibility for your own actions.

Aha I see. Rules, standards, courage, integrity. The problem is that each political group has Its own view on what moral rules and standards are. Each political group see what you called moral decay from Its own perspective. Each individual has Its own view on what for him is moral decay.

What do you think Europe and America were better 100 years ago? No they were not. It was different yes. But different moral decay. Those things you mentioned were hapening even before just that now we are more informed about it and things maybe become more visible. Just remember what happened in America 50 years ago in the 60's. That wasn't moral decay?

We consider muslims as barbaric but they consider us as barbaric. Simple.

As we live in liberty each individual has the right to have its own opinion about everything. Even opinion what for him is acceptable and what it is not.
And if you ask me liberty is one thing Western civilisation differs from other barbaric civilisations.

Tnx tbone. You also have very high taxes on oil.

LOL  Name one thing we don't.  If it don't move we tax it.  If it moves we tax it twice.   If you find something there not taxing they will triple the tax on it to make up for it.

My understand Cal. is going up the first of the year.   I see in Oregon they now have 15% ethanol in diesel.  It cost 50¢ less per gal.   I don't understand it as it cost more to make ethanol, so it should be higher.   There also looking at taxing cars by there driving mileage or for fuel efficient cars. 

Oregon is also look at putting a tax on bottled drinking water on top of the 5¢ for the container.

Does OR still not let folks fuel their own Vehicles? I love libs who do not think the citizens are smart enough to get out of bed.
