OIL

First it was a lie to get us into a war; than a lie about how well the war is going; than out-of control deficit spending; than no border control, than leaking classified material, than illegal wire tapping and now outlandish gas prices. My god – what is next? My immediate concern is that gas is out of control and why—because the Republican Majority would rather worry about what language the “national anthem should be sung in”, “appealing the estate tax”, and banning gay marriage than breaking up the oil monopoly. This Government has sold out the American people to the oil cartel and now the American people have to pay for it through blatant and overt extortion at the gas pumps. And please do not tell me the oil industry is not monopolized when all the oil companies raise their gas prices at the same time. And please, no more pseudo-hearings on price gouging, just some choices too buying gas from the corrupt oil industry—like electric cars or ethanol.
