Its time to turn back the clock STOP us from doing down the road to ruin!
We need to learn from the past or our children will have NO choice as did our parents! We need to ration Gasoline as if it were already in short supply before we have to do it to survive! This will curve that bad habit of cruising for fun or other events that do nothing but entertainment us for fun.
Those who fail to head this warning, will doom us to higher and higher prices! If we fail to cut excessive use of out door, use of lawn mover and recreational vehicles like boating, motorcycling powered by gasoline instead of solar or propane mowers.
What you do now will determine the future of humanity as a whole. We NO longer have the resources to sustain all the growth of people coming in to the world. We reached out limit.
Food will have to be grown in back yard as during the WW2.
We can NO longer take for granted our prosperity.
During the WW2 you couldn't just walk into a shop and buy as much sugar or butter or meat as you wanted, nor could you fill up your car with gasoline whenever you liked. All these things were rationed, which meant you were only allowed to buy a small amount (even if you could afford more). The government introduced rationing because certain things were in short supply during the war, and rationing was the only way to make sure everyone got their fair share.
