“The oil companies and speculators have cut their own throats. I believe they have inflated prices to cover their profits and will end up having Government more in control of them. They have alienated all Americans and screwed themselves.”
You may feel more at home in the DU. Your ignorance shines brightly in your post.
tagline bump.
OPEC is made up of countries that produce oil. It's not an American company. It's not an oil company either. And they don't speculate ~ they just do their thing.
Funny how all of you out there who buy the Leftist propaganda lie about the oil companies are all pissed off that they make $.10 a gallon on gas sales but never are bothered in the lest that the State and Fed government makes a $1 on that same sale of a gallon of gas.
Maybe if some of you were not such willing drones ready to buy what ever lie the Democrat Political/media machine screams at you, we would finally get some real progress on this issue. Since the 1970s, every time Gas prices go up, the Democrats start chanting the same lies. Maybe it time to quit buying the lies and learn the facts.
It is a simple supply and demand equation. Not enough supply, price goes up. If we would quit letting crackpot 3 world thugdoms control the supply and developed our OWN resources, we would not have this problem. But no, now we even have started importing GAS as well as oil.
How long are the American people going to be so willfully blind to the facts? Want lower prices? Start more drilling and refining HERE in the USA.
