Top 20% already pay 80% of the taxes. and their share of national income has skyrocketed. income taxes are BARELY progressive. we are becoming a plutocracy. the rich own FAR more of america than they did 20 years ago. the US has the worst GINI coefficient of any western industrialized democracy but the fact that this often leads to national collapse...like egypt...seems not to bother you. You should get a job and pay some yourself instead of whining. You live in a country with lots of opportunities and prefer self pity. You are fat and lazy in the head. Typical fleabagger. you right wingers think that those of us who objectively evaluate EVIDENCE are lazy whereas you guys who believe in fairy tales are realiists it's like saying the easter bunny is real and those who disagree dont like eggs. |

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. You're still here, **** for brains? I'll bet you $1000 you are wrong. Here, you can get $1.00 off a gallon if you spend $1000 at the supermarket in a given 30-day period. And you can save more if you spend more. Put up or shut up, **** for brains. And that goes for you, too, Loogy. Okay, deal! We'll bet a grand that I'm not loogy, also. Put up or shut up, **** for brains. I don't give a **** whether you are loogy or not. It is enough that you act like loogy. Now, are you willing to take my bet for $1,000 or not, **** for brains? I'm not that interested in your real identity, because by whatever name you call yourself, you still stink like ****. Got balls to back up your mouth? Didn't think you did. |

When you go to Giant you are paying higher prices than you pay at Safeway, Magruder's, Weis, and other grocers in my area. And, the Shell station closet to me has prices that are about 6 or 7 cents greater than the BP station which is more convenient. Why am I going to pay higher prices for groceries, about $20 more than Safeway, then go out of my way to go to a Shell station to save 3 or 4 cents a gallon? The economics just don't make sense. We have three major grocery stores here...Giant, Safeway, and Food Lion. Their prices are comparable. No Magruders, sadly. All the gas stations down here are within a penny of each other for regular. Saving $1.00 a gallon for a fill-up leaves $23 in my pocket. |
