GUZZLE, GUZZLE OIL BUBBLE

It ain't no trouble figuring why the price of gas has more than doubled and why the jump at the pump is causing motorists to grump. But they have to pay anyway because that's the way things are today.

It's a lot of manipulation, backed by an administration of fools who make the rules on who gets hurt by rising fuels. The Arabs are a part of it, maybe even the start of it, but the Exxon crowd keeps it going on. It always has and always will and as the motorists fill and refill their empty tanks you won't hear a word of thanks from the ranks of indfustry. They just say, "You buy. We supply." And well, the wells ain't going dry.

Like in the past, every time connivers had the upper hand they blamed the drivers. The Exxon icon was the same: Supply and Demand's the name of the game. Figure it out. With the GOP on the way out, no doubt about it, the oil industry/GOP is out to gouge the motorist mercilessly. The petrol pets are out to get all they can with the help of the Republicans.

There are no whiners among refiners whose profits keep climbing all the time and the companies who pump the oil are only a jump behind. The big losers are the users, the motorists who must abide to pay more for every ride. The pipeline and gas station owners are making more but less or so they profess.

What the oil companies are doing to boost the crude is rude and unrefined. And keep in mind who's behind it all. Their greed exceeds their dollar needs and bleeds the whole economy. Take note the next time you vote.
Return prosperity and sanity to the good oiled U. S. A.
