The Greedy Oil Barons fucked up and went too High...reduced traveling=reduced business |
|
=reduced profits=reduced viability=reduced odds of staying afloat=more failures=more unemployment=more banruptcies=death spiral=cheaper gas to revive economy=too friggen late= over the edge=depression=bottoming out=prolly 6000 range, maybe lower on the DOW...
Never put Oil dudes in charge....we forgot that one didn't we???
So now we see many pubs who voted for Bush/Cheney and who lost their jobs/homes/selfesteem/face/savings/future...wod can I say?

5. Add 50-100% price increases in food transport costs |
|
passed directly on to the consumer... eg. apples going from 99 cents a pound to $1.99 with no sign of any reprieve. The fuckers that drove oil to $148 a barrel need to be strung up.

6. Oh, but that only hurts little people like us, don'tcha know |
|
...Big Oil has never considered the impact to the individual consumers. What's unusual about this situation is that they fucked other plutocrats.

4. Too high, or did they help BushCo get everything in line? |

This collapse was neither inevitable nor unforeseen. It was by design. This is the New World Order Poppy Bush spoke of.
