Gas getting higher.
 
$3.38 in my local but from $3.05 a week ago.

I wonder if this summer if the "talk" will produce between 4 and 5 per
gallon. Sux for a river cruise, but We're still planning on going
anyhow.

Washington says there was no inflation.
They have all the facts and politicians.

You might consider that big oil has us bent over a barrel with a gas
spigot shoved up our collective arses, and they're going to take
advantage of it.

Corporations are beholden to their stockholders, not the customer.

Any business is a balancing act between customers, stockholders
(owners), and employees. On top of that, throw in the government,
general public, media and financial services just for good measure.

My advice? Become a stockholder. It's very satisfying to be a
stakeholder in a well run business.

It's also very satisfying to be a stakeholder in a gov't that does
something for people.

Government should be the service provider of last resort for things
that no one else can do. Anything else is socialism.
