I'm on your side in this one, gas prices are controlled, plain and simple...
but a more important question is: how were you able to change your screen name...?

yeah, I'm a dumbass...thanks for the spell check...
My name stayed the same when I came over to the new site....I don't know why...I see I have lost several thousand posts but I haven't been around much lately and I'm relatively confused about all he new stuff going on around here.
I'm confused who this rant is aimed at, but i sure as fuck don't watch 60 Minutes.
I also have no idea what you are insinuating regarding oil, but if it is a reference to collusive price rigging, and centralized "management" of the oil markets, then i'm in full agreement.
The run up to $150 a barrel and the crash back to -- what is it now? -- $35 a barrel has been one of the most stupendous and least investigated instances of collusive insider trading and deliberate speculative manipulation that has ever been witnessed -- second only to the amount of manipulation that the central banks have put on against gold for the past year, probably.
My personal take on oil prices is that, given the "disconnect" between gold and the markets (since gold has long been demonetized), OIL has been THE commodity du jur for the illuminists to manipulate. And for what purpose? TO DISTORT INFLATIONARY DATA.
Given the extreme amount of money that has been guaranteed, outright printed, and so forth (trillions at this point) and assuming oil had NOT run up to $150 and been dropped like a hammer (by collusion), oil WOULD have been slowly creeping up the price charts making it VERY OBVIOUS that we had inflation.
However if all the richest banks in the world get together and PREEMPTIVELY run up the price of oil BEFORE demand slows down (which just proves how collusive it was, because ANYONE could have told these idiots that such a price was incompatible with global growth slow down) and THEN knock the price down when their little media puppets start babbling about "contango" and oversupply vs. low demand, THEN the inflationary nature of the situation is burried in a pile of anomalous data.
We're not just talking about the price of oil.
Oil is a MAJOR component of ALL prices,
and that means it is THE PRIMARY PRICE TO MANIPULATE IF YOU WANTED TO FUDGE THE CPI AND PPI DATA.
"Oh look. WE DON'T HAVE INFLATION! PPI and CPI have been coming DOWN for 3 months!"
Yeah right, you cocksucking assholes.
You just fucking manipulated the price of oil.
Of COURSE we have deflation, you dropped a PRIMARY price component of ALL goods by 80%!
These folks at the top are smart.
Disturbed, scary smart.

If I opened it now would you not understand?
