U.S. Gas Prices Continue To Fall

First time accepted submitter nmpost writes "Earlier this year, as gas prices hit record highs in the winter and spring for that time of year, experts warned we were headed for all time records this summer. Something strange happened before every motorists recurring nightmare happened: gas prices actually started dropping. In fact, prices have fallen over $.50 since they peaked in the spring. Experts have now flipped their projections, and believe prices will continue to tumble through the fall."

    Although I was not the person who wrote that, I think I should point out that Slashdot's fascist leadership have officially banned me in perpetuity from posting while logged in. And perhaps rightly so, because my edgy wit smoked bitch-ass motherfuckers like you and fucked your girlfriends.

    So no, fuck you, shill account. Also, gas prices are low because Obama wants to be re-elected. Idiots.

    ...I wonder how much longer the world at large will put up with such shenanigans?...

    As if they had any choice.

    Its very simple, really.
    There's a few very rich and powerful people running the world.
    Sometimes they make money selling petroleum futures, and other times they make money selling carbon credits.

    You didn't really believe Al Gore won that Nobel prize fairly, did you?
