Well here on the Cape it is $3.15

But I went off Cape and saw $2.95 in a few areas.

But $4.00 is coming!! The Govermewnt is allowing the oil co. gouge us all!! But they say they are watching the gas stations??

Co. are all making 10's of Billions each quater!! Then they allow the pipe line to get old and run down and then stick ity to us!!

The gov has always helped with stuff like Rent control, telling Insurance Co what they can charge, Telling Microsoft they have to share, ect ect ect....

what I am trying to say why can't they make some rules!! Like 90% of this oil stuff is speculation!!

We might fight Iran, go up on gas, there mioght be a lot of storms, go up on the gas, There is war in lebadon now, go up on gas!!

They must put a stop to it!! I am thinking of calling my landloard and telling him that I think I am getting layed off can he go down on the rent?

Or the eletric co and say its going to be a cool summer can you drop the rates??

Going to be a milkd winter can you lower the heating oil!!

You get the drift!! How can they go up on just the thought of something!

And then, they yell USA has little oil and we are dependent on forin oil!!

But its local gulf oil that sent the prices to $3.00 and now its Alaska oil sending it higher!!

They must think we are real stupid!!

OK I shut up now

Not to turn this political, but doesn't Bush see profits from higher oil prices? Conflict of interest there maybe?

Ok, I just pissed off half the board so I want to say, I'm sorry to all the Bushies :-* I still love you! :-*

I don't understand how BP's lack of maintenance is our problem to pay for. We have to open our wallets to pay for their "learning curve" decision not to add anti-corrosion additives to the oiled being pumped through the pipe.
How about this; they use some of their billions of $$ to make the repairs themselves and stop raping the consumers. ::) >:(

i think bush sr. was one of the founding members of opec or something. i know he is an oil man. if BP has a prob with thier pipeline, shouldnt i be able to go across the street to chevron and get it cheaper? oh, they work together to screw us, i see. is that why FEMA gave 200 million to chevron for katrina damages and now tell me i gotta pay back the 2400 they gave me after i lost all my belongings and 75000 in damages to my house. but we found out you got 12000 from ur insurance so we want our money back! i got a sba disaster assistance loan and cant get a draw from the bank cause i did most of the repairs myself. to get my money i gotta hire another contractor to redo what i had to do months ago just to have a roof over my head. so i gotta make payments on a loan that i cant have the money from! oh yeah, fema called a couple weeks ago and said they had a camper trailer ready for me if i still wanted it. where were they when i was living in a tent? oh yeah, i remember now, they were to busy taking care of the illigal mexicans who flooded us to take all my work that i neede to make money to fix my house. oh ur finaly caught up, well guess what, 4 dollars a gallon ya bastard. how caught up are ya now?

If you check any wealthy man's portfolio you are likely to see that they own shares, directly or through mutual funds, of oil companies. Even Al Gore does!
