It's Them, Not Me: Don't Look Now, Big Oil's Back in Town

And, it's not even their vaunted "Summer Driving Season." I guess you'd have to call it the "Mid-Winter Pre-Summer Gas Gouge Season."

Must be their way of honoring President's Day. Over the weekend I'd heard about looming gas hikes. It'd been at $3.35 in Fox Lake, Illinois, and was still there when we drove over to J's in Ingleside for the $1.25 pints and half price BLT pizza. I decided that I'd best fill up.

Sure glad I did as the price was $3.46 three hours later!! An 11 cent gouge!!!

Last night Chicago CBS commentator Walter Jacobson did a bit on filling up his vehicle and being extra shocked when he saw the pump at $58 and stopped and it wasn't even full!! He then saw the ridiculous profits the Big Oil Companies have been making.

If the government needs money so badly, hey, it's time for a 90-95% tax on obscene profits made at the cost of the American Way of Life.

WILL ROGERS SAYS: I wonder what he'd say about American families suffering and Big Oil getting rice from it.
