gas prices? WHY????

Well! I try to avoid what the media tells me. At least when it comes to regarding it as the actual and absolute truth. But! Here's something to ponder. Back in the early to mid eighties oil and gasoline plummeted. As a result, the Soviet Union collapsed and has never been the same. Reagans strategy paid off. Could we be repeating history?

Yes but not the way you think , Reagan actually killed the whole commodities market bankrupting the average North American Farmer in the process and of course creating the Corporate Farm culture we have today , the biggest drain on the Russian economy was actually 10 years of unwinable war in Afghanistan , so yes history is repeating itself , your economy tanked , the banks got bailed out , congress just enabled another dump of corporate debt and repealed the act that was supposed to keep the banks in check and prevent another dump and collapse -read the riders to the budget that just passed before you reply Lead .
