As Profits Soar, Companies Pay U.S. Less for Gas Rights At a time when energy prices and industry profits are soaring, the federal government collected little more money last year than it did five years ago from the companies that extracted more than $60 billion in oil and gas from publicly owned lands and coastal waters. The disparities in gas prices parallel those uncovered just five years ago in a wave of scandals involving royalty payments for oil. From 1998 to 2001, a dozen major companies, while admitting no wrongdoing, paid a total of $438 million to settle charges that they had fraudulently understated their sale prices for oil.

However, Florida's pre-eminent economic forecaster, Fishkind and Associates, has just predicted a gentle leveling of Southwest Florida housing prices. Lawrence Yun, an economist with the National Association of Realtors, went further, saying, "If there is one region in the country that I am least concerned about the prospect of a home price decline, it would be in the Florida market." .... naplesnews.com
