Oil took a 10% dive today as speculators started
selling off
positions
out of fear the top price has been seen.

These speculators should have to pay a huge tax on
their
profits since
they're causing so many Americans to pay inflated
prices at
the pump
and causing inflation in every sector of retail.

NEW YORK -- Oil prices took a nosedive Thursday in
a historic
selloff,
erasing weeks of gains and indicating that the
months-long
climb in
energy prices may have hit a ceiling.

Crude oil plunged 10 percent as startled investors
unloaded
their
positions and a weeklong decline accelerated into
an outright
freefall. The price of U.S. crude went from triple
digits to
double
digits, falling below $100 after opening at close
to $110.
Brent
crude, a European benchmark, lost $12 at one point
in a
sell-off that
exceeded the one following Lehman Brothers'
collapse, Reuters
reported.

An oil correction is underway, experts said, as the
price is
moving
toward what fundamental economic factors dictate it
should
be. For the
American consumer, plagued by weeks of rising
energy prices
that have
begun to weigh heavily on the economy, a bit of
respite may
be at
hand.

You know the old adage, gas prices go up like a
rocket and
fall like a
feather
Yes, I also know the story about Chicken Littlle
Having nothing to do with what we are talking about.

It is a fact that gas prices go up with oil prices but
they lag
the
fall of oil prices by several weeks or even months.
If oil dropped to $60 tomorrow, gasoline might not
reflect that
for a
month or more.
Chicken Little was afraid of the sky falling. Right
wing nuts are
convinced the world is ending and rising oil prices are
supposedly an
example. Totally appropriate comment.
`
The world isn't ending, but we are losing value in the
dollar and
that
shows up in oil or anything else we import. You can live
in denial
if
you like.

Yet the price of oil is dropping... I guess my denial is
working.
Let me know when you get the gas prices down to two bucks.
Thanks a
bunch
I can remember when we considered $2 gas to be expensive.
It was
only 10 or 11 years ago.

I paid $4.30 for gas today... I don't see anything coming
down, any
time
soon...

I paid $2.97 something for 23 gallons today. It really must
suck to be
you. That was at Shell, with a dollar a gallon discount
courtesy of
shopping at the supermarket.

Bull****. That's 10 cents a gallon discount. You are a ****ing
liar of
you say you get a dollar a gallon off.

LOL, It is obvious that Harry Krause is losing it. You know he
didn't
want to make such a blatant mistake, but his mind is slipping
big time.
He read somewhere about a discount, but he couldn't remember
the amount,
so he guessed it was a $1 off

Talk about morons...jesus.

Gas is currently selling for about $3.89 to $3.97 a U.S. gallon
around here.

I paid $2.97 a gallon the other day. That's a dollar a gallon
discount.

Giant offers 10 cents off a gallon at Shell for each $100 you
spend at
the supermarket. Thus, if you spend $1000, you get a dollar a
gallon
discount.

You dumb****s can't even handle simple grade school math.

Bull****. They do the same here, and that's not the way it works.
You
never get more than a dime a gallon off. You are a ****ing liar.
Here's
how it works. When you spend 100 bucks at the store, you get 10
cents
off a gallon for 100 gallons. If you spend 1000 at the store, you
get 10
cents off a gallon for 1000 gallons. Idiot.

Are you saying the man is a liar? Maybe he's just suffering from
dementia.

Yes I am saying he's a liar. He's been caught in so many lies here that
no one except Don believes his bull****.
