Gasoline

It is predicted that gas prices here in the Evil Empire will rise to over $4 bucks a gallon here soon.

According to one analyst I heard on KBOO, that price is HIGHLY INFLATED.

According to her (and I forget her name, it was about a month ago), the U.S. has an excess of oil in reserve. Actual gas prices (like diamonds) should be much lower than their inflated numbers. She explained it as the traders (traitors?) on Wall Street making deals that artificially raise the price of oil in order to create more wealth for the already wealthy. One fella, she alleged, even bragged about how he single handedly raised gas prices.

What inflated gas prices do, of course, is make the poor poorer and the rich richer.

Here in the U.S., thanks to the constitution, jingoism, the media, the alleged education system, etc., there will be no folks hitting the streets. We are so docile and complacent here that unless it involves some billionaire losing five bucks a year, we aren't willing to hit the streets in droves and bring about any actual forms of change.

Inflated gas prices also mean inflated food prices, inflated restaurant prices, inflated already heavily inflated movie prices. Folks won't go out as much. Businesses will start slowly going under, smallest ones first. But the BILLIONAIRES will be fine, and thus, none of the poor folks on the bottom will do anything because billionaires won't be getting hurt.

So, gas prices are a highly inflated lie that benefit only the excessively wealthy while damaging the folks on the bottom (that's us). We on the bottom aren't going to do a damn thing about it because it doesn't damage the bottom line of billionaires, it damages our bottom lines. No one will hit the streets, or if they do, it will be in such small numbers that it won't be noticed. The media will play along with the lie because the folks in the media only care about their careers, not the truth.

This, too, will supply fuel to the impending economic collapse. See ya there!
