[quote=Mark355;740552]And it’s mostly due to speculation and market manipulation, not supply and demand. Crude surpluses are actually up. Nice, huh? Ya it suck for Americans. OPEC meets every year and decides how much crude oil to release onto the market. Kinda makes you wonder what would have happened if we just turned Iraq into glass instead of this idiotic missguided path we’re on now. ---

Fucking ridiculous. No other product’s price goes up and down nearly as much as gas does. Doesnt anybody in the government realize how badly high gas prices fuck shit up? -Any kind of freight shipping prices increase -people dont take vacations, tourism industry goes to shit, less tax revenue -many small businesses/trucking companies forced to close -increased unemployment and a bunch more shit. Seems like nobody’s wages go up when gas prices and the price of everything else goes up either. And then the gas companies post record profits. ---

Guess what happens when you sell hundreds of billions of gallons of gas? Yup you are going to make billions of dollars. The profit margins for an oil company are a joke compared to many other lucrative businesses, they just sell a whole ton more. Oil companies are posting profits, they are hiring more people, they are giving cost of living raises…it’s about time for the government to step in and punish them. It’s a private company what is the government supposed to do about it? ---

I can’t fathom how much is wasted on unemployment. What is it 1.5 years now? These idiots just sit around all day and collect rather than going to work. It’s such a pussy system. People dont WANT to work. They would rather have handouts. Same thing with welfare. We’re fucking doomed. I don’t post in these threads because I get so heated over our own stupiditiy. Obama, why don’t you extend it to 5 years, with free health care for ALL! National debt is such a joke anyways. Why bother working? ---
