4. Food has already increased due to last gas increase, everything will
I need to charge more at work since my expenses have risen sharply, but cannot because people cannot afford to pay more. It is a dilemma.

5. It sure has.
And I believe it will go up again as gas soars and stays high. I think the price of many things will have to go up.

3. What happened to Capitalists taking risks?
I'd tell these people to stick their surcharge. They should do the planning for jet fuel increases during the spring. When they say the price is "x" then it should be "x!"

Do they expect the consumer to go over the oil and gas journal to figure out what the price will be? They know that every year since bush has occupied our White House, the cost has gone up. It's the GOP tax on spring.

7. He was bashing Clinton because crude was $20/bbl
Candidate Smirk said that it was the president's job to "jawbone OPEC until they open their spigots". He is without a doubt the most odious creature on Earth.

I wish our people would start playing some tapes pf *'s lies from Y2K
