“There isnt any reason why the gas companies should be posting 16 to 17 billion dollar profits in 1 quarter.”
Yeah! That 8.5% return is just hideous. I hope you feel the same with your 401K investments.
Live from Kentucky. Govenor Beshears did a great job of political grandstanding last week in anticipation of the chaos threatetened by Hurricanre Ike. But all of his wind was no match for the devestation Ike brought to the Ohio Valley last Sunday. With 90% of the homes here without electricity at some point and hundreds of thousands still without as of today, Tuesday, we are actually driving miles and miles and queing for blocks at any gas station with power to its pumps. Price gougeing is not an issue at this point, its PLEASE SELL ME YOUR GASOLINE! What are you doing about ELECTRICITY BESHEAR?
