"Average U.S. gas prices hover at record-high levels"
I blame high gas prices on President Bush and his oil-company pals. Oh wait, never mind.

Bob you're just speaking party lines. Man up and buy a Volt. Your savior urges you to do so.

But seriously..bitching about gas prices? This thread was torn into like 2 years ago...It's not about who's in office or where we drill. Much bigger things at play that we have no control over

Wow you have been indoctrinated with the liberal propaganda if you believe it isn't. It's just mind-boggling how a human with a functioning brain cannot see that our country has been duped with man-made global warming. If it's such a big issue then why is China allowed to build coal-powered plants at an alarming rate? Why do we bother when our cuts won't make a god-damned difference to the environment whatsoever? It's brainwashed short-sighted lunacy. |

I'm just so tired of it. One of the big man-made global warming champions is David Mayer de Rothschild.
His family is estimated to be worth 80-300 trillion. Introduced central banks around the world including the Federal Reserve. How could you not assume that this is just a con to tax western civilization while China, India and other countries are allowed to build one coal-powered plant after the other? These pampered rich snobs like Rothschild and Gore were raised by con artists and manipulators. Stop getting played. |

Obama would "prefer a more gradual transition" as he has said himself, but he's just fine and dandy with high gas prices. You guys have to break your "addiction to oil" ... you know, get a 12 step program to convince your internal combustion engine to run off of windmills, rainbows, and happy thoughts.

From Honu's link:
>>>Investment firms that can influence the oil futures market stand to make a lot; oil companies that both produce the commodity and drive prices up of their product up through oil futures derivatives stand to make even more. Investigations into the unregulated oil futures exchanges turned up major financial institutions like Goldman Sachs and Citigroup. But it also revealed energy producers like Vitol, a Swiss company that owned 11 percent of the oil futures contracts on the New York Mercantile Exchange alone [source: Washington Post].<<< They get to take an enormous stake in oil, then make up whatever value they want to assign to that stake by issuing unsubstantiated values to futures derivatives and letting the "free" market trade those. LOL.. |
