Trunks, you need to think about this a little more, you're starting to pull things out of your ass. Companies will never stop wanting more money, you're stupid if you actually beleive that they will be satisfied and the entire company will just retire to south beach...Wrong. Companies are run by people. People who will not see the need to continue their companies when they are filthy rich. There aren't a lot of Bill Gates' out there buddy. When people have enough money, they stop caring about their companies, and start caring about luxury.

Also, the people you know who can't afford the high gas prices are exactly the incentive that the gas companies have to find more affordable sources of energy. You think they don't know that people are not gonna be able to pay $5 for a gallon of gas? Of course they do! It's in their best interest for them to maintain customers, otherwise they don't get enough money!!!! You are seriously underestimating the intelligence of corporations. You may think they are evil, but that certainly doesn't mean they are stupid... Oh dont worry bud. We will be able to afford $5 a gallon. We will just have to buy cheaper food, get closer jobs, buy less luxuries, etc. For somebody who is telling me I did not think closely enough to what I said, you are making the same mistake. The gas companies also know that EVERYTHING we have runs on oil. No matter how high they jack up the prices, people will ALWAYS have to go to work, go on bussiness trips, drive to teh supermarket, etc.

I didnt bother responding to your second post, because I would be more or less restating what I just said.
