Since I haven't been able to find time to right a full blog, I've decided to start trying to get on here regularly and just post my thoughts for the day.
Today, I heard that President Obama has assigned the Justice Department to investigate oil and gas companies for price gouging due to the recent increases in prices. I'm surprised he even noticed given how little coverage it has had in the press. Unfortunately, he thinks we're all idiots and will actually fall for this canard. Not that it's impossible to think that gas stations could do that, but not all of them and not when we know there are so many other reasons for the prices going up. No, President Obama, we know what you're up to. Your policies towards drilling and the destruction of the dollar through your fiscal policies are driving up the price. Sure unrest in the Middle East has been a factor, but the prices were going up before that. Just like the price of food has been going up for a while. The reason your recovery has been a fake recovery is because unemployment is still high and those of us who are still working can't do as much with our money because it's all going toward food and gas. And in case anyone is reading this, you should research how food and gas prices affect the inflation rate. Here's a hint: They don't! So if you think we don't have high inflation, think again. The stats are skewed and have been for a long time.
