Gas prices have doubled
Why have gas prices doubled since the Democrats took control of Congress and
only went up 15% during the entire time the Republicans held Congress under Bush? If this trend continues and Democrats run the government, say goodbye to Stinkpot Cruisers. |
Gas prices have doubled
Since Congress (Red or Blue) seems unable to do anything significant, like
pass the EPA Clean Water Act exemption for recreation vessels, what makes you think gas prices have anything to do with them? They drones under the dome don't set gas prices. Increasing demand in China, India, and other rapidly developing nations, together with eight years of disasterous and stupid foreign policy in the oil producing areas of the world are what sets the prices. -- Roger Long |

Gas prices are fixed by demand, yes, but a much larger factor is the fact that the Yankee dollar is near worthless. That blame lays firmly at the feet of the Federal Reserve Privately Owned Bank Corporation, the bankers behind the curtain. It's why gold is constantly creeping its way back up to $1000/oz. The value of gold hasn't changed in 10,000 years. The money has, quite simply, gotten more worthless as the FED runs the printing press 24 hours a day loaning money to the US Government and failing American banks with nothing but a promise to back it up. You barely hear a thing said on the Propaganda Channels (cable news) about failing banks like the biggest one to close in US history this week: http://www.indymac.com/ Notice the slick bank webpage has been completely replaced by serious Federal Deposit Insurance Corp text. Pages like this: http://web.archive.org/web/200708271...ndymacb2b.com/ and all others, have simply vanished....along with a substantial amount of depositors' money. Who do you think will cough up the $US8,000,000,000 FDIC will pay in insurance? Who will crank up the money printing presses to print it....raising fuel prices even further. We're going to be in VERY serious trouble, very soon, as OPEC is moving operations away from the useless Yankee dollars sliding over the falls and onto the more stable EURO. Gas will really jump on that day as the conversion is nearly 1.5:1 at the moment and widening. |

Actually the oil futures market has ballooned from $60 billion to $260
billion in the past 7 years because of deregulation pushed by Republican Senators and Congressmen. It just took a little time for the chickens to start roosting and the droppings to pile up. -- Glenn Ashmore I'm building a 45' cutter in strip/composite.

Mike,
Here is some actual data: http://www.gasbuddy.com/gb_retail_price_chart.aspx Gasoline went up more than 15% during Bush/Repo Congress and did not double during the Demo Congress. However, there is a big jump in prices since the Democrats took over Congress. I cannot help but notice the gas price curve is very similar to this one: http://pangea.stanford.edu/~jshragge...s/image007.gif If one is silly enough to believe that the latter curve proves that man is causing global warming, then it is intuitive that the Democrats are causing the rise in gas prices.

Don't forget the overall diminuation of U.S. "street cred" due to blundering
military adventures, crazy foreign policy, and an obvious mental defective in the top job. That translates directly into loss of confidence. The value of the dollar is largely based on that confidence. The dollar was the standard by which most other currencies were valued just eight years ago. Now the "gold standard" is the oil standard. As the world has shifted from dollars to oil as the basic economic unit, one has gotten cheaper and one has gotten more expensive. Guess how that looks from our end of the telescope. -- Roger Long |

We'd rather let CNN, FOX, MTV, CMT, our church or political party tell us what to think and do. Saves valuable porn surfing and video gaming time. We're in a toilet, but the surge is working and there nothing really wrong with the economy so all is good, right? Could someone open up my drip just a little? aaaawwww, that's it..... |

If this trend continues and Democrats run the government, say goodbye to Stinkpot Cruisers. Hardly. Those of us that can afford it will continue to enjoy it... with a lot more free space on the water. |

I'm kind of out of the loop, myself. I haven't had a TV in the house since 1992 when my wife left. She took it with her and I never replaced the "billboard in my living room" as I refer to them. What little there is to watch on it that's "news" between the incessant spams, is a lie, a fantasy created by the shadow government.
