The price of OIL determines the price of Gasoline, and the price of OIL is determined by trading in a free market, between millions of buyers and sellers across the entire GLOBE. Just like Copper, Gold, Silver, etc.....

Bullshit... Its not supply and demand anymore bro im sick and tired of that excuse. Demand has fallen 11% compared to this time last year yet prices are back up to $3.15 are you serious??? Theres no justification as of right now for whats going on today. I dont want to hear about a threat on our country or any level orange bullshit weve been at War for damn near 5 years, it's our way of life now and weve adjusted as an economy. They Government has control over it in almost every way except crude oil prices, THIS is the Govt that elected to go to a 200 Billion dollar war with our main source of oil correct? So how are they not at fault?
Of all the price hikes most have been from expected or anticipated pricing not actual pricing and oil is our largest resource how can it not be a priority?
Everytime theres a holiday prices are up, threat on America, prices are up, we whipe our ass, prices are up so dont give us terror, crude oil prices, or holidays as an excuse anymore.
Bush backers have NO remorse for those who are making life decisions at the pump everyday living on minimum wage and not eating or feeding their children. They say hey if it dont bother me what the fuck do I care for right? While they drive and fly around all day on our hard earned tax dollars.
If you ask me, anyway you can make a buck without paying taxes, do it!
Demand has been down here in the US since we killed the biggest threat in Iraq, less people are driving due to inital costs of $2.50 plus prices yet we kill Zarkauwi and they dropped .10 f-n cents. But that fat asshole from S Korea launches a few missles unsuccessfully and HEY, time to jack prices up over 3 bills. When Bush tells us what we did good at War we get a .10 cent break, someone unsuccessfully sends a message and we get a .40 cent estimated hike.
The US Govt. regulates, passes, and dismisses all laws concerning fair practices in trade trust me brother if the price of gold had risin to theses levels 3X actual estimation they wouldve stepped in by now!!!
The problem is it doesnt effect them so they dont care, they have more troops to kill and more WMD's to try and find in the wrong Country after 4 years of searching. Oh and that Bin Laden guy thats sort of important is still calling shots from a cave.
I know why Georgie and Daddy havent killed him yet, because the Bin Laden family funds otherwise unsuccessful business here in the US ran by Bush, Cheney, and congressman and that would fuck up their relationship and cash allowances to run their business.
Theres nothing I could do but run for office and at that point I would be a crook too just like my financial backer who schools me into this shit and where our money actually goes.
Im not a hater Im just very anti- govt games, those who built this country would be ashamed of flying into Florida and reading signs in Spanish, our leader throwing dirt on their names everyday by doing what he's doing. I know we cant pull out now but we fought the wrong War and he wont admit his mistakes. F U C K the President, the Govt, Congress, and taxes.
Its such a slap in the face of the govt if you think about it, they pushed for this War with the wrong country for their own reasons. That country controls 63% of our oil (knowing it wouldnt effect the govt) and then the have the nerve to say damn, crude oil prices are too high theres nothing we can do to lower it. I wonder what we can do? Hmmm...
But wait we didnt include the fact that they may not control crude oil prices totally but guess what? They sure as hell make a profit from it.
This $200 billion dollar War will pay for itself after were all done fueling up, hey thats sounds like a plan!
As a country were not as dumb as we may look.
