A record plunge in the cost of gasoline

With the government increasingly relying on propaganda to promote everything from the war in Iraq is going fine to the economy is fine, how can any sane person believe the news these days.

Take the gas prices. The oil companies were making billions already in profits. Obscene profits. Then starting in July of this year, and continuing through the two hurricanes, the oil companies raised the prices of gas 60 cents and took in more obscene huge profits.

Now that the oil companies, after their little meeting with congress, have dropped the price more than 60 cents in the past month, back to what it was in July and earlier, the government touts THIS as proof the economy is picking up!

Ha ha ha. Good thing I had already had my cup of coffee when I read that.
