Gas Price Rant

Pishta, I agree 100% with all you said. The speculators are the cause of all our economic problems. When they run the crude prices up everything else has to follow from farm products, groceries or anything that has to move by way of trucks,trains, ship or planes. I am just a little man but it sure took the profit out of excavating so I started my retirement. If we are really supposedly running out of crude why are they letting it be sold to these countries that don't give a flip about us. I couldn't believe the transportation industry didn't strike when the diesel prices shot up the first time, I was ready to join them for however long it took,Joe
