Get Ready For The Gas Hype; Come On Bush Do Something.

The price of gas is going up because they say Americans wil drive more this summer, do you know of any Americans driving more at these prices? Where is the congressional investigation into oil; and gas price manipulation by the oil companies and the market traders? I call for an immediate look into the analyst, traders, and brokers; let’s see how much they make off of our gas price misery. They are feeding off of their fellow Americans like a pack of vultures on a wounded animal. They disgust me. How can they keep raising gas prices on theories and expectations?

We do not see a reduction when they are wrong. How can President Bush be jet setting all over the world and addressing world problems when we are getting pounded right here in America? If a robber was at your door would you just open up and let him in because he says there is a good chance you are going to get robbed anyways? If not then why do we let oil companies, and commodities traders get away with this? And when is congress going to look into the trader aspect of the oil prices? These guys manipulate the market worse than boiler rooms scam artists. These pump and dump traders are ruing our lives but I guess as long as the rich can play the market, and the oil companies are happy, who cares about you and me.

The latest story to hit their market is that U.S. driving is going to be up. I guess no one actually listens to us because we here in America are living as less as possible and every quarter gas creeps up means we drive that much less. However, with market manipulation going on by the oil companies, and market traders, we are still involved in a get rich scam by the already rich and those who make them that way.

Ask any average American and they will tell you they are driving less. The only reason we hear this type of hype is because the gas and oil companies want to drill us for the Memorial Day weekend rip-off. Why do we tolerate it? And where is the congressman, or Senator, who will step up for America? Show me this person and I will support their election and re-election 100%. After the holiday hype will be the hurricane hype, it’s just another way for the oil companies to rip you butt good.

President Bush needs to look at oil and gas prices
