Subject: RE: BS: Crash of U.S. Economy
Astute observation, heric, about which chickenshit shall lead us. Both candidates have been eerily silent about the economic problems Americans are facing.

Yesterday on some news program (I was surfing, so don't remember which), they were saying gas consumption was down by over 2% in the past month, and part of the reason why gas prices were dropping.

Sure, I think to myself. Sure.

I don't think the gas price fixers will shoot the price over $4.00 again before the elections (OK, maybe over Labor Day weekend). They can't afford volatile, angry voters. If we get a completely new Congress, the bribe machine will have to go into overdrive!
