How about investigating multimillion dollar sports players salaries, especially the NBA, which make the ticket and hot dog prices so outrageous?

Why don’t we investigate why so many congressman end their political careers as millionaires when they weren’t millionaires to begin with?

AWESOME post there.

Can’t be stressed enough.

The oil companies EARN about 7 cents profit per gallon after all the up front costs of exploring, drilling, capturing, refining, marketing and transporting that oil.
The govt forces the oil companies to be tax collectors at a rate of 48 cents and up.
Saw earlier where some freepers were putting post it notes on gas pumps to remind customers of who causes the high gas prices. I am going to start putting post its on the pump with these figures and at the bottom, “who is the profiteer here?”
Bet even schumer doesn’t even know this and couldn’t comprehend the tax/profit difference if he was told of it.

It's too bad the GOP is too stupid or too gutless to get these visuals out to the American voting public.

All the flag waving rallies are fine but the content is typically the same; just a different day with different politicians.

Here's an old one that should have been plastered all over the internet by Conservatives:
