Georgia is Out of Gas

Because mouth breathing , selfish people are hoarding and panic buying. I am sitting here in a long line, on empty. I have just been diagnosed with a kidney infection which can be fatal. I may not even be able to get to a pharmacy.

I expect fighting at the gas pumps any minute. Trump sold this country to Russia.

If I could afford to move I would. This state never really shut down and only half, if that , wear masks. They all go to packed churches. Kemp is a fascist criminal and he has the IQ of a goldfish.

Have we all just completely forgotten that people froze to death in Texas a few months ago because they deregulated their power grid? These southern states are reaping what they have sown. Soon parts of Florida will be underwater from rising sea levels.

Someone recorded a stupid woman filling plastic bags with gas and placing them in her trunk! What could go wrong?

It seems to be a little over half democrat here. But the government is the most corrupt state , that is according to Trump, who should know. He said that on one of the recorded calls. Do even though we have more democrats, the republicans cheat in the elections and we can't vote them out.

by Anonymousreply 23May 11, 2021 10:42 PM

I remember sitting in long lines in the 70's gas shortages. I guess companies are going to have to revise their pay and benefits to attract more drivers. What a shame! They might actually have to pay people a living wage! Oh noes!

And for the person complaining about 3.09 per gallon, that what it was here in CA 3 years ago. Now it's 3.79 or 4.05 per gallon. But judging by the amount of traffic on our freeways, no one is letting that stop them!

They are here because they are panicking. I barely remember it, but during the Carter Presidency, wasn't there a gasoline shortage? Long lines, fighting. I hope this doesn't last long, but it probably will. The hackers usually demand money, Don't they? Would we pay them?

During the Carter and Ford presidencies.

According to the clip at r18, only white people like Ethel merman worked or bought gas at Texaco.

Why did they still do that in the 70s? Didn't they realize yet the time were a-changing?

No R19, LOL at you. Many of these companies do not want any sort of government regulation telling them that they might want to run computer software that is slightly newer than Windows 95. It's a matter of national security, but many of these companies are run by Republican businessmen that think they know better.

South Carolina is running out to. Gas stations in my city are shutting down. I filled up on friday, so I'm fine. I think lots of people are panicked buying and topping off, which is making it 100 times worse.

Biden really needs to make hay of this. This is why we need to upgrade our infrastructure. Infrastructure isn't just roads or bridges, it's also security for our pipelines.

Just curious, what exactly happened to the pipeline? I know it got hacked but did they shut if off? The oil is still in there right?

[quote] Just curious, what exactly happened to the pipeline?

Apparently it can’t function without computers. The hackers locked up their computers and demanded a ransom to unlock them. The pipeline is still not functioning as of today, the company “hopes to get it restored by the end of the week.” Biden (Psaki actually) was asked about whether the administration would approve of them paying the ransom. The response was ‘they’ve gotta do what they gotta do.’

4 states have declared states of emergency.

If this is how it really happened, then the company's employee/employees must be really stupid or be in on the hack themselves.

I visited a nephrologist last week because staph had been detected in my kidneys. I asked about both alcohol and dehydration as causes of kidney disease and he said most likely not. He said it's probably left over from some other infection and I'm on antibiotics.

Sorry to go OT, but r38 seems misinformed.
