the last week of sept I checked on heating oil

two of the local dealers said that the oil industry was predicting prices would drop to below $3 gal and stay low all winter. oil at that time was $3.349.
Itopped my tank of oct 14 ,it was $3.199. the dealer I picked has one of the lower prices in the area.(he's dependable, I got taken last year my dealer closed the doors with approx $1000 of my money-so no I don't prepay anymore)
today the price is 3.399- I don,t blame him I blame these asshole republican's that created this atmosphere that ripping off the bottom 99% is good for the country.
you can bet with this early snow demand(for bigger profits) will once again prevail!
I say occupy texas! and nationalize those oil maggots holdings!

Edited on Wed Nov-02-11 05:26 AM by luckyleftyme2
On my way back home from Togus "VA" I FILLED MY TANK AT CUMBERLAND FARM for $3.399
cheaper by 20 cents in my home town 20 miles away. The irony of this is that I see on the
back of a oil truck #2 heating oil was only $3.519-WHATS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE!
WHEN IS OUR TWO SENATORS GOING TO GET OFF THEIR ASS AND STOP THIS RIP OFF-AFTER WE LOSE PEOPLE FROM FREEZING TO DEATH OR BURNING UP IN THEIR HOMES-I DON'T THINK EVEN THIS WOULD MOVE THEM FROM THEIR GO ALONG WITH THE PARTY STALL!
LETS GET THESE OIL COMPANIES BACK TO NORMAL!LETS FORCE THE PRICES DOWN BY LAW OR NATIONALIZE THEIR HOLDINGS!!
NOT A MONTH FROM NOW -BUT NOW WITH EMERGENCY ACTION!!!
AND THAT GOES FOR OUR CONGRESSMAN ALSO!
ACT NOW!!! NOT TOMMORROW!!

2. winter heat and house fires

We just started our winter with an early snow storm last week. now the temperatures have been all over the place but many are using their heat source as the mornings are cool.
the point is how many fatal fires have we had since the first of oct. (to many)
we need to get our fuel down to a reasonable cost. It's time the government broke up this energy group who have no since of fairness (as their profits have shown)
I say every time the price of fuel goes up a penny they force business to give their employees a dime an hour! and continue this until the wages triple to match the increase
in fuel!
or how about a $1000 fuel oil coupon for each household!effective now! and collect the
cost from the energy and speculators in the fuel market! I think we could achieve that with no problem all we need is a congress that is working for the people!
