They could do it so they did. The price of a gallon of gasoline is priced today on what some futures trader on Wall Street decides it will cost to replace it three or four months from now. They really think and some people probably do beleive all the concocked reasons why oil is at these price levels. Let's see, continued hostilities in the middle east, when was there ever not hostilities in the middle east? The weak dollar, if our dollar is so weak why does every country in the world want as many of them as they can get? Oh, a couple of Taliban tried to attack an oil feild in Nigeria, better raise that price a couple of dollars just in case they try again and are successful. Oh yes, let us not forget the hostilities between Iran and Israel like that is something new. I am so sick and tired of these people making every lame excuse in the book when in reality it is all about their own personal pocket and greed. The government, wall street and the rest of the world play off our ignorance as a society. Bush hails his historic stimulus package like that measly check will get us through this. I will spend that much on coolers and ice during the summer going to the lake. The future does not look much better with the fine candidates the powers that be have decided to throw out there for us to cast our little vote for. Obama wants equal right for gays and McCain wants amnesty for 20 million Mexicans, what a choice. What the people want does not mean anything any more. They know our memory is short so they do what they want and get reelected when the time comes. We cannot hold any of these thugs responsible because we are not organized enough to make our vote count. The Black vote is the most organized vote in our country. Even though that vote is manipulated by so called black leaders. Do you ever hear any candidate talking about the white vote, not a chance. That is overlooked until all the polls are all proven completly wrong on election night. This blog got off track a little on the political side, but the gas prices and the politcal side all ties together in the end to yes screw the American public once again. But hey, live and let live, I am sure we will forget this by the time we need to remember it again.
