Gotta ? for all you good people




Answer me this...How come the price of gasoline went up 20cents+ in one day because of a weather forecast? I understand they had to shut down some refineries due to an impending hurricane. They also cut the production of crude oil by half a million barrels a day. So even if the hurricane was not to come our trusty oil companies ensured a nice tidy profit. We, at least most of us, have cut down our consumption of gasoline, so what do they do? They cut oil production.. I truly believe this is not a winning battle for the American people. Do we have control of our own destiny? Not if the oil companies have any say apparently. Oil and pharmaceutical companies have such a monopoly that our futures seem to depend on them. That is rather a sad state affairs...
