Re: Just bought my first-ever $3 gallon.
It's not just the oil monkey; our Govt is financing the war in Iraq and Afghanistan by floating bonds. Who can come up with the $$billions$$ it takes to pay for the war every financial quarter? And this is on top of the never ending pork spending of our politicians!
Answer:
China
Saudi Arabia
The Oil Companies
Look at the sick profits they show on their financial records.
Think about it, the oil companies get you to open your wallet at the pump to increase their profits, they then take those profits (that cost them nothing but to hype the price of oil and gas) and lend it to the Government for 4.5%. We will someday have to open our wallets AGAIN to pay back those bonds.
WHAT A SCAM!
We are a debtor nation to Communist, Jihads and big fat oil executives.
