Just heard that the average American Household spent $4,155 on gas this past year, a cool 8.4% of what they took in.
Gas average $3.50 a gallon for the last year and is expected to do over $4 again this coming spring.
Big Oil likes to use the increase in Third World demand as an excuse, but we all know, it is to get richer.
And then, there are the countries in the Middle East getting unimaginable wealth above and beyond. And how about our good friends to the north and south of us raking in the money as well. Perhaps we should insist Mexico start paying for all their folks here who are receiving services they didn't earn.
And them, there are those states getting rich off oil, and of course that candidate from Texas taking credit for his state's doing well (while double dipping into a state pension).
