Freedom

Rich Ramalho asked:


ng how to achieve financial freedom with better gas mileage is a very helpful step. It presents multiple means of how to survive the raging increase of oil prices. More than that, it also protects the environment from further destructive threats.

Being careless and irresponsible is a big no-no in today’s living. In driving, a single negative habit or mistake brought by these characteristics will make you pay much more than you can afford on fuel and maintenance expenses. This puts you nowhere close to realizing the financial freedom with better gas mileage that you might have been planning.

There is a bunch of simple steps that you can take to increase your car’s mileage. From your garage to the road itself, there’s always something that you can do to increase fuel economy and help save the environment. However, the mentioned negative traits must be first gotten rid off for you to effectively achieve financial freedom with better gas mileage through these steps.

Here is the list:

Properly maintain your car: If you keep your vehicle properly maintained, it would less likely to cause you higher expenses. This is not just a single step to financial freedom with better gas mileage but rather a combination of multiple steps. It includes replacing damaged air filters, keeping engine properly tuned and inflating tires with the right pressure.

By replacing clogged air filters you can increase your mileage for up to 10%. And by keeping your engine in shape, fixing its damages, the mileage can be improved for 4%. The proper inflation of your tire will result to a 3.3% mileage increase while under inflating it will cause 0.4% mileage decrease for every 1 psi pressure drop.

Change driving habits: On the road driving habit is a major factor of the increase and decrease of mileage. The large part of the achievement of financial freedom with better gas mileage depends on it. Also, it is where your commitment for improving fuel economy will be seen.

Avoiding quick stops and accelerations is the first of the many tasks composing this step. Accelerate slowly and “coast” your stops by taking your foot off the gas pedal beforehand. Choose the routes that have fewer stops. This will keep you from having zero to full speed.

Staying far behind the car in front of you will also help. If it slows down you won’t be forced to brake immediately and accelerate again. This will fuel your way to achieving financial freedom with better gas mileage by increasing it for up to 10%.

Another bad on the road habit that greatly affects your chance of reaching financial freedom with better gas mileage is the frequent idling. It will give you 0 miles per gallon, wasting fuel and money. Larger car engines often eat up more fuel than smaller ones thus it waste more money during idle times.

Observing your speed limit can better your fuel efficiency from 7% up to 23%. Of all the steps, this is the one that can give you a great leap closer to achieving financial freedom with better gas mileage. Though cars reach optimal fuel economy at varying speed, gas mileage often decreases rapidly at 60 mph speed and above. Always remember that 5 mph over 60 mph will cost you an additional $0.26 per gas gallon.

When travelling, lessening your load will generally increase your chance of achieving financial freedom with better gas mileage. Carry only those that are necessary and avoid bringing heavy loads to experience the 5% mileage increase. For every 100 pounds extra weight, your vehicle’s mpg is reduced for up to 2%.

The rise of oil prices is something that you cannot stop. However, you can always keep yourself from consuming more than the reasonable amount of fuel. The implementation of the given steps is one of the proven ways of speeding up your achievement of financial freedom with better gas mileage.

It is said that freedom is not free. What do you see as the price, the cost of freedom? How is this cost changing with time?

Brian McClellan asked:


You deserve to be free in all ways, not just a few. To live the life you deserve, you must enjoy freedom in all its variations. Indeed, our physical freedom is our birthright. It is not something that should need to be earned, bought, or passed from generation to generation. It belongs to us from “Once upon a time” to “The End.” Physical freedom is important, but true freedom also means living a self-determined life, which is not easy. True freedom means creating, rather than accepting, the environment in which you live. It means refusing to stay in surroundings where you are not wanted, not loved, or not valued. It means having the ability to change your situation immediately, taking a principled stand when a principled stand is required. It means working on your own behalf for your own reasons. It means not accepting other people’s definition of how much of your time is their time and how much they will allow you to keep. You lose in that deal every time. It means being a Public Enemy when necessary, fighting the powers that be. It means not accepting anything human-made as a given. Free people know that anything human-made can be human-destroyed if necessary. True freedom is living life rather than just surviving it. Free people believe they can beat any odds, and then bet on themselves to do just that.

Those who are truly free will not accept “sometime” freedom, nor will they wait for “someday” freedom. In the same way that you would not accept the right to vote in only odd-numbered years, free men and women do not accept circumstances that work against them today in exchange for the promise of retribution at some later date. They know that those who would hold them captive today cannot be trusted to emancipate them tomorrow. Therefore, they support only those people and organizations that would have them do well at all times. Free people believe they deserve to do well, so they insist upon surrounding themselves with people who feel the same way. This is nonnegotiable. No bully is going to take their freedom like it was lunch money. They keep it on lockdown like Hannibal Lecter.

Further, those who are truly free believe that freedom delayed is freedom denied, and they’re not having it. They see too many of their peers busy dying one indignity at a time while waiting for their gold watches, so the free get busy living. Yet, too many of us spend our entire lives working for the weekend, working for vacations, working for retirement. We spend our entire lives trying to endure the bulk of our days as they want, so we can live some small portion of them as we want. People who are free in all ways believe it is their absolute right to determine their fate. They spend every day of their lives asserting that right. This is how free you need to be to be free. Yet, there is something inside too many of us that causes us to defer freedom or, worse still, to give it up altogether. Why? Freedom begins in your mind. You cannot be free if your mind is not. Are you free?

Pinkerton asked:


It seems like the labels are always defined by the victors. Whoever is in power calls anyone who is against it a terrorist, but once the people in power are overthrown, the former terrorists are called freedom fighters, and those originally in power are labeled the new terrorists.
Even well-known freedom fighting groups have used terroristic tactics such as killing civilians. Also, many so called terrorists claim to be fighting for their freedom. So, what is the difference?

Jack The Ripper asked:


Seems alot of people don’t understand the difference,example Cindy Sheehan. I support freedom of speech but at some point you’re simply working against your country. When you refer to people who have murdered thousands,chopped of peoples heads,drilled holes in peoples skulls to kill them etc as freedom fighters haven’t you crossed a line?
bebe thanks for posting that link,I heard some about that earlier,they aren’t tanking they are imploding. It’s hard to remain focused when their entire worldview is based around hating their own people.
