I heard rumor (I can't confirm, nor deny) that gas is going to hit
$4.
bucks per gal. by august.

Not only will that hurt (as in stab) the economy, but my boating
will
be pretty well done. for a while......

CRAP!


You know how to fix the problem. Right?


concerning boating, yeah, convert to steam. or a sail. concerning the
economy? buy oil co. stock....

In the news, when you hear that a barrel of oil's gone up in price, they
always follow that statement with a reason. Do you remember what that
reason is? To keep this thread less cluttered, the reason is not supply
& demand.


Supply and demand.
Investment speculation that oil will be scarce in the near future due to
destabilization of the Middle East.


Your first idea, supply & demand, will *always* be a factor. Your second
reason is the one you could've done something about, and may still be able
to.

Too cryptic for me. I don't understand. You're expecting too much of my
intellectual abilities.
