But all I said was that its a little bit funny that the Bush Family ownes OIL companies and have BUISNESS dealings with all the people who control the oil prices. Im just calling it like it is. I mean I know that If I owned oil companies....and my time running the US was limited....hey why not run up the prices ....make my billions and who really cares that the little people are gettin crushed. Not that ol George W. has done anything that millions of other people haven't done before......
knock it off with the conspiracy theories cause it aint true. the reason prices are high is because there arent enuff refineries and a bunch of the refineries in the US are extremely old and a few of them blew up this week. and nobody wants to build new refineries because they are dirty and expensive. so there u got thats y gass prices are high. that and the fact that the price for a barrel of oil keeps going up thanks to those terrorist in the middle east tha keep blowing up oil drilling platforms. all this means we need to invest in gasoliune alternatives like i said because oil wont be around for ever anyway.
