Well, our free market system is working... (not)

Let’s see, oil prices dropped $3 a barrel, storage tanks around the world are full, tankers are being used for seaborne storage - Then why did gas prices just go up 12%...

Here locally prices went from $1.94 Monday to $2.18 Friday...

Oh, that’s right - people drive for Mother’s day - gotta squeeze every nickel out of them. Monopolies don’t need to compete. Supply and demand are a myth.

Soon Mother’s Day will be a lost memory, it will be “State” day.

Profit is where you find it, maybe they are making up for the new obama cuts they got hit with.

As usual the little man pays.....

Are you catching some of the programs that obama is cutting, I keep seeing one here and there, schools, police forces/equipment and the list is long, if one could find it all in one place.

But his largess sounds good on tv.
