Great line. Now you need a cartoonist to bring it alive.
Who was that freeper that used to do cartoon-like posts?
Goldman Sachs, i believe, is trying to protect Obama’s hide from having to consider allowing drilling for oil etc in the US of A in order to bring gas prices down. Got to protect the man who shoveled billions of our tax dollars into bailout bonuses to save their hides from the consequences of their investment creations. Why are there no World Court hearings for the economic havoc they have wrought on the world economy?
Some of them have recurring "fantasies" in which everyone is dead--except themselves, of course--and they have the ability to remake human society as they see fit.
A Democrat I know actually has this bumper sticker on his car;
“Gas was $1.49 when Bush was elected.”
What was it when Obama was elected? $1.79?
something like that.
We need bumperstickers.
I agree. I predict that after gas touches $5 or $6 /gal, we will see a substantial price plunge... just in time to clinch Obama's reelection.
so begins the demolition phase in order to build socialist utopia
The escalating cost of gas is merely another step in Obama’s plan to destroy America. Obama thinks America hasn’t been paying it’s fair share for petrol. He said so from the beginning. He also promised he would change it so Americans are paying as much for petrol as the Europeans. Since to pay less, is a crime against his master, one allahmoohaamedalikrashadalialquedamosbrohoodofamericaandmideasternafghanfagpersianknightsarbianpimpsofterrorahmedthepervertedknightofgay.
I would like to see Trump put out an add with bo’s video talking about higher gas prices.
I am glad I have a hybrid for my commute, but even then it’s still a lot of money going to gas. Much better than my old truck though.
But if gas goes to 5, it will be about as bad as when I had the truck. Scary.
Gasoline should be at most $2.50 a gallon.
The rise in oil (and thus gasoline prices) and food prices is a DIRECT result of the Federal Reserve QE2 program.
"Hot money" from the Federal Reserve is going to re-capitalize the insolvent Too Big To Prosecute banks (Bank of America, JP Morgan, Citibank, Wells Fargo, etc.). This money ends up in commodity speculation (i.e., oil & foodstuffs).
My prediction was that we could take 8 weeks of 2008-type gasoline prices before the ordinary consumer crumpled, because when gasoline was $4.00 a gallon in 2008, food prices were VERY LOW. Now, food is HIGH, and the consumer can't pay for the double stealth taxation in gasoline AND food.
The current gasoline prices jumped over my beginning threshold ($3.50 a gallon) in the first week of March.
It's now been about 6 weeks. Yesterday, The Federal Reserve tapped Goldman Sachs (The Vampire Squid) to lower the price of oil, because my prediction was coming true.
They're still not out of the woods, because I don't think they really understand how bad it is (they believe their own propaganda about "The Recovery").
Remember, the oil companies are giving you and me an ACTUAL PRODUCT that we can use to produce, whereas The Banksters are selling us debt, and giving us 1% on our saved money, while they're getting back 12%+ on credit cards, and more on "bank fees & charges".
“All this when there is an oversupply of oil due to lack of demand.”
The only oversupply i’m aware of is the massive amount of greenbacks floating around the globe. Gas is still way too cheap compared to the worthless green paper also known as dollars.
Not if they were among the 2/3rds!
Amen. I’m paying $4.20 for diesel in Nevada right now. Only expecting it to go north. Rodeo season might be a bit curtailed for the kids. We’ve already cancelled any vacation plans. Not a single green weinie has explained to Americans how you can pull a loaded 12,000 lb four horse trailer with a Prius. When they do, I’ll look at buying one.
