Gas prices next Labor Day?

If it is less than $3.509, I want the over.
I think the Saudis are teeing us up for a hit, right before the
election, to assure the win for the neo-cons who will keep fighting
their wars for them.

Right now they are happy, simply killing Keystone, clean coal,
fracking and alternate energy with their cheap oil.

They have demonstrated that they are willing to shut off the tap if it
benefits them or punishes someone they are ****ed at.

As a member of the "investor class," don't those high prices trickle
down to you through your stocks? :)

Absolutely. Companies plan profits, based on their revenue so if
expenses are higher, the profit is higher as soon as prices catch up.
These days that happens rapidly on oil, if by no other way in the
delivery charge or the fuel surcharge.

I do find it interesting that when oil is high, they blame a bad
economy on the price of oil and when oil prices are low they say low
oil price is the result of the bad economy.

When oil is high Harry blames it on greedy speculators because that's
the party line and everyone loves a conspiracy.

Well, for the most part Harry is full of ****. I keep wondering what the part is that
isn't.

Maybe that is what this is.
We can all be speculators.
How about a "price is right" bet?
Closest without going over.
Five bucks a play, anyone who plays gets a shot at the pot.

I have five bucks on $3.595 (to avoid the push)

Filled up wife's car yesterday...16 gallons at $2.12 a gallon, less the
90 cents a gallon accrued from purchases at grocery store...$1.22 a
gallon, net. Felt like old times. :)

I've seen $1.95 here.
Did you know that there will be no SS COLA raises this year? Why, you
ask? Not because of food or housing costs which continue to rise, but
because gas prices are so low. Thank you O"Bama administration.

You sure do know how to squeeze a penny. Maybe the next administration
will bring us some relief so that we don't have to pinch pennies so hard.
