>Gas prices are a reflection of market conditions. Yes, and if the market allows the oil companies to raise the prices as much as they'd like because people really believe that gas prices should be that high (because the news says so), then the prices are going high. There's no fucking reason gas prices should be this high, and there's no reason that as they rise oil companies' profits should go up as well. It'd be a lot more believable if the profits stayed static. One war raised the prices this much? Sudden concern for conditions 30 years from now raised the prices this much? Bullshit. Total, utter bullshit. I believe more and more than much of this country is run by fucking robber barons, many of whom you champion. And why should I continue to kid myself into thinking that we're not at war because of corporate reasons more than for "spreading democracy" or any other crap the President feeds us? Fuck it. Nearly every war in history has had a large economic cause, why should I believe that this one's any different? -Z
