Huh??
During Dubya's reign, our self service regular gasoline reached $1.49 per

I believe this was in 2007.

Yeah, and they did something about it.. This time all we are doing is
sending dollars to other countries to drill for our own oil! At the same
time, doing everything Obama can to discourage any new or even continued
oil production here at home. Of course this whole green scam is bringing
lots of ethanol money to the Chicago area, and putting the worlds food
supples at tremendous risk.. It's a great plan our non-leader doesn't
have, the guy isn't good or bad, he is just a useless lump...

Of course he has time today to go up on Facebook again, wonder which
country he will send into revolution and abandon next? They say he will
be taking "random" questions... NOTE: "Random" questions have been

For the most part, the petrol business in our country and in much of the
world is run by multinational corporations, and we've given them our
permission to loot our oil.

I am waiting for the homeless, disabled, limited fixed income types to
march on DC and Ottawa.

It is only a mater of time before our leaders will have the same issues
as the foreign countries the US, UN, France interferes with.

Do you really think that Bush, and or Obama can regulate gas prices in
Canada, idiot? They can't even to that in the U.S.

Last time they tried, no one would sell at the pegged price so there was
shortages. No real shortage at all, just a shortage of people willing
to pay for it. So supply dried up.

Would not doubt Obama might try it. Will not help in the end. Might
make people angry enough to fix DC debt mongers good.

Heck, not me. With my F150 115 litres is nothing, and capital gains...
well, no need to worry about the retail pumps prices.

But then I didn't have faith in the stock they call money. Sto money
stock is a rapidly depreciating asset. That is why people are buying
gold -- real money that holds value.

Blame Bush all you want isn't going to change it, and besides it was
Obama that shut down US gulf and coast oil drilling. At which time I
appropriately bought lots of oil anticipating this.

I hope fleabaggers keep voting for these ponzi governments debt
spenders. Makes for good market churn and big profits. I may never be
satisfied with 5% interest again!

Gas didn't go up any more than gold, silver, copper, food, and other
commodities.

The value of the USD is less today as in the last 24 hours Obama printed
about $5.5 billion dollars. Printing no-value money dilutes the stock
of money.

Just like a stock split but a little bit each day. Adds up, and the
stock isn't worth what it used to be. And you don't get the extra
share, Obama debt gets the extra share.

While government thinks it can set interest rates to zero, and people in
their right mind don't lend money at these rates, the fact is it isn't
free. This debt and ponzi scheme of DC is diluting your currency and
that is where the cost is showing.

Best part is fleabaggers will eat this good. While I can buy gold, oil,
own lots of precious metals holding their value, the fleabagger likely
works for less value today.

Hey, the fleabaggers voted for debt for nothing and fraud debtor
governments....now the hyper inflation piper needs to be paid.
Unfortunately you and I are along for the ride. But DC needs to slam
debt-spending, raide interest rates and stop printing money for 10
years. If they borrow, they need to borrow real money at real rates.

As I write, gold is over $1500 and oil is pennies from $110/barrel.

Hey, if you had any money, you could speculate in gold and oil. But you
don't.
