Congress is moving on a host of energy-related measures.
The liberals are in control of both houses and are starting to feel the heat and may be in trouble in November. Nothing they can do will bring the price down before the election.
The kicker will be the heating season in the northern states. Does $1,500.00 per month, or more, for heating bills sound reasonable? You can stop driving or reduce your driving, but you have to keep warm.
Summer cooling bills will ramp up both in the south and the north.
The cost of living index does not include the increase cost of energy. I think Bill Clinton took that out of the calculations. So for senior citizens the SS check will not see much an increase.

Jimmy Carter said you could put on a sweater. I’m sure Obama agrees.
