Gasoline…I heard on a radio talk show, hosting a financial consultant wiz, that the reason for the most recent rise in fuel is based on the government bailout of Wall Street brokers and banks. Seems that they didn’t use the money to reinvest in lending, and other things they should have. They used the money to buy futures like petroleum, which has been driving the price up for all of our commodities.
Not only did we pay to bail out these jokers who swindled us to begin with, we are now lining their pockets with profits, on futures obtained with tax dollars, at the pump. Wall Street, Main Street, and Capital Hill - all one big, ugly singularity that we can’t seem to break up snd get off of our backs...
This is apolitical. They are ALL in on it.
I strongly urge you to write your congressman and tell him/her/it you are mad as hell and not going to take it anymore. You can do this online nowadays you know, so what is holding you back from letting your voice be heard? DO IT.
