Do speculators monitor the Tire Inflation Index to determine the price of oil?

I mean the Tire Inflation Index is a good measure for speculators to determine prices for oil right?





For all you smarty pants who vigorously defend Obama's Tire Inflation Energy Policy....I got news for you...Speculators don't gauge your tires to determine future prices for oil....NEWSFLASH...cause there is no such method to realistically measure it...and two, if we slow down the use of gas by inflating our tires...then it implies that tax revenue (to maintain roads) goes down because we use less gas at a less frequent rate...and then you Obama-noids start whinning that you need more money to maintain roads...and the madness continues...





It's like the schmucks who tell you to conserve water...and so you do so...but then the same schmucks raise the water fees cause they had a decrease usage of water...So they screw you for conserving water and then screw you again by raising the fees...





I laugh every time you defend that schmuck Obama....and his Tire Inflation Energy Policy....





Please defend this man...I need a good laugh..Do speculators monitor the Tire Inflation Index to determine the price of oil?
Oh Venom, when are you going to stop watching Fox punditry and learn that Obama has a comprehensive energy plan. Perhaps you should go to his site and research it yourself. It's far more comprehensive than McCain is lying about. It's too bad McCain doesn't have more of an energy plan than creating more wars.Do speculators monitor the Tire Inflation Index to determine the price of oil?
If you were running with underinflated tires it was a foolish thing to do, how can anybody make false claims that x amount of oil will be saved by properly inflating tires when people who were concerned with proper automobile care were already checking their tire pressure and the ones who weren't will still neglect their tire pressure whether B.O. says it is a good idea or not.
I used to think Obama was a naive goofball but right after he made the suggestion about inflating tires the price of oil went down, coincidence, I think not. Who would have ever thought that inflating tires to run as they were intended was a good idea., Amazing man.
People are stupid. Take you for example. I bet you don't realize how much more gas you have to purchase because your tires aren't inflated properly.


Obama is right but you cons are too blind with anger to see. Why are you people always so angry?
He on the payroll of all the compressor companies that charge for air.
Is that what that guy in a suit was doing in my driveway today? Thanks!
lol.. They will now. LOL
You go right ahead and drive with under inflated tires.





As for me, I'm going to save about $500/year by making sure mine are properly inflated.








As to your questions.





1. Speculators do check oil use, and properly inflated tires can save up to 5% -- which is nearly 1 MILLION barrels of oil every single day. In fact, the U.S. has reduced its oil use by 800,000 barrels/day over last year, simply by conservation. This is four times the amount of oil that might eventually come from ALL additional offshore drilling.





2. Your gas tax argument is inane on its face. Your argument is that we should get bad mileage so that we pay more in gas taxes, which will pay for the roads. Personally, I don't want to do this. You can if you want, but I'm not going to.
