Tweed BS: Am I the only one stunned by oil prices? (117* d) RE: BS: Am I the only one stunned by oil prices? 09 May 08


I'm stunned that they've been allowed to jack up fuel costs with no restraint from anywhere. I don't know about UK and Europe but we in America used to be somewhat protected from greedy mega corporations and from our own government. This of course has changed drastically since the present regime so forgive us if we sound summat naive. A royal fucking of this calibre is still new to us and we don't know exactly how to handle it just yet. Some of us saw it coming and knew we were gonna be screwed and some saw it coming and they thought they were experiencing some sort of paranoid dementia and that it would go away. But it didn't and now the party's over.   

Just remember:
They can screw you but they can't eat you, as that's still against the law.

I predict a resurgence in the arts as people will be too broke to drive anywhere or buy a 2500 dollar tv set and will be forced to entertain themselves and their friends in the old simple manner again in the kitchen and on the back porches across the land. (It could happen.)
