Bend Over for 'Big' Oil
GALLUP NEWS SERVICE
PRINCETON, NJ -- The latest Gallup panel survey finds the public bracing for continued rising gas prices this summer. A majority of poll respondents expect gas prices to reach the $4.00 per gallon level in their local area this summer, though only a small minority expects it to reach the $5.00 mark. Roughly two in three Americans say they have already been affected financially in some meaningful way by the high gas prices. The public most often mentions oil company greed as the reason for the high gas prices, though it also mentions other more practical reasons such as problems with refineries. |

They'll mention whatever the talking heads tell them to mention as reasons. Remember "increased demand in China"? That's the reason I heard for the latest run-up. Same thing last year. But, when the price dropped last year, nobody said "decreased demand in China". I don't listen any more. The only info I'd believe would come from Rex Tillerson, who was being waterboarded in return for real details about the pricing scheme. All other explanations thus far are an insult to our intelligence. |

It's pretty hard to ignore big oil's announcement of record profits every quarter. Maybe it's time to sell the boat and buy Exxon Mobil stock. Jim |

Jim Maybe it is time to elect a president who gives a damn about those with middle or lower class incomes. We've had six and a half years of corporate payoff in the White House. It's time to make sure the public's interest is represented in such key, high-cost to the public industries as oil and health care. |
