Gas Prices

As if the economy wasn't bad enough, along comes much higher gas priced to boot. All these billions of dollars being fronted by the Federal Government to bail out just about anyone and everyone, guess who's going to ultimately pay for it? That's right, you and me, that's who. When was the last time you saw our Government make a profit? The best gas prices in town are $1.84 per gallon right now. Here we go again Folks!

and the oil prices are still down. Go figure just wait til the spend bill goes into affect it surely isn't going to stimulate anyone, oh unless you're getting some of the "free" money. I hope this isn't the straw that broke the camels back!

The rich people conceal their identities on wall street and "bid" up the price of oil and gasoline through futures contracts. These people buy paper contracts for oil and gasoline. they have no where to store it and so therefore they never "take delivery". They simply use their money to bid up the price. They own all of the oil and all of the gasoline sold in America, even though they have no oil and no gasoline on hand. They own it on paper - future contracts. This is how they manage to arbitrarily manipulate the price of gasoline and oil without ever touching it.
And now you know.
