Kind of interesting how oil continues to go higher and higher and the only people getting blamed for it is US!!! Sad, isn't it? Going to be really interesting to see how much profit the oil companies come out with especially when oil is $20 a bbl higher than last quarter!
Here is a proposal from your Dem buds:
"WASHINGTON -- Dealing with global warming will be painful, says one of the most powerful Democrats in Congress. To back up his claim he is proposing a recipe many people won't like _ a 50-cent gasoline tax, a carbon tax and scaling back tax breaks for some home owners. _A 50-cent-a-gallon tax on gasoline and
jet fuel, phased in over five years, on top of existing taxes."
That should help the airline industry. This is being sponsored by Rep. Dingell (Chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee). Have fun watching your Dems wreck the economy because they think the government can control the weather.
