GAS PRICES

AS I DRIVE TO WORK EVERYDAY I LOOK AND CRINGE WHEN I SEE A GAS STATION. THE PRICE KEEPS GOING UP AND UP AND UP. SOMETHING HAS GOT TO HAPPEN. THERE IS NO REASON THAT CRUDE OIL KEEPS GOING UP AT RECORD PACES. THE ONLY REASON FOR IT IS THAT OIL COMPANIES ARE TRYING TO MADE MORE AND MORE PROFIT. IF A CEO MAKES A COUPLE MILLION DOLLAR SALARY WITH MILLIONS OF ADDED PERKS, WE HAVE A PROBLEM. I FEEL THAT THESE PEOPLE ARE TOO GREEDY AND I DON'T KNOW HOW THEY CAN SLEEP AT NIGHT KNOWING THAT THEY ARE CAUSING SO MANY PEOPLE TO STRUGGLE. I AM ALSO SICK AND TIRED OF THE EXCUSES THAT ARE MADE TO JUSTIFY THE PRICES. TOO MANY PEOPLE THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO LOOK OUT FOR AMERICANS AND SUPPOSED TO PROTECT THE INTEREST OF AMERICANS ARE GETTING SOMETHING OUT OF THE HIGH GAS PRICES.
ANOTHER THING THAT GETS ME IS THAT ALL OF THE PEOPLE THAT DRIVE AROUND IN THESE BIG SUV'S DON'T SEEM TO BE THE ONES THAT ARE AFFECTED BY THE GAS PRICES, IT IS THE PEOPLE WHO DRIVE THE SMALL COMPACT CARS THAT JUST A FEW YEARS AGO COULD FILL UP FOR $12.00. NOW IT IS ALL THEY CAN DO TO KEEP A HALF TANK. WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO SUFFER BECAUSE OF THIS.
SOMEONE NEEDS TO STEP IN AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE PRICES. IT IS CAUSING SO MANY PROBLEMS FOR THE LOWER WORKING CLASS PEOPLE. WE NEED TO HAVE PEOPLE THAT ARE ACTUALLY GOING TO PROTECT OUR INTEREST AND NOW JUST THERE TO MAKE A BUCK. I THOUGHT THAT THE DEMOCRATS SAID THAT IF THEY GOT CONTROL OF CONGRESS THAT THEY GUARANTEED THAT GAS PRICES WOULD NOT GO BACK UP, YET LOOK WHERE WE ARE NOW. I FEEL THAT THEY ARE GOING TO LET GAS KEEP GOING UP TO MAKE THE REPUBLICANS LOOK BAD, BUT WHAT DOES IT SAY ABOUT THEM, THAT THEY ARE WILLING TO MAKE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE SUFFER SO THAT THEY CAN LOOK LIKE THE HERO'S. TO ME THEY ALL NEED TO GO, NONE OF THEM HAVE DONE ANYTHING TO HELP THE WORKING CLASS PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTY.
JUST TO SAY AGAIN THESE GAS PRICES ARE TOTALLY RIDICULOUS AND A RIP OFF!
