I've already had two different LFS personnel tell me some their prices are about to go up due to the cost of gas.

Did you vote for the industrialization of China or against it ?  and Did you vote for the industrialization of India or against it ?  Those two countries have both decided to increase their dependency on oil by a huge margins in the last 5 yrs...  China for lack of better words WENT NUTS, India is not far behind them.

...The CEO's of the following companies got together and sent out a letter to all people using Petrochemical refined products.

DOW, DUPONT, ROHM & HAAS, and HUNTSMAN issued statements today that a flat out 20% price increase on all products will take effect next quarter...

Isn't that called price-fixing, collusion or some other unsavory phrase?

Not to worry folks, the elusive International Bilderberg group is meeting again this week in Virginia, and they know what is best for the U.S.
I'm sure as soon as they get their new puppet Obama in place, things will be improving in good time....hope & change.....  :(

Not just him, McCain, Hillary, they're all on board the Neo Con global government band wagon, again, if you read the article above about the bilderberg group, it is MY belief, that they BILDERBERG, are the ones who actually control the direction of the worlds governments, including ours. It would not surprise me one bit to find Bernacke at the meeting this week.

Just my opinion, here in the lounge.

Whats coming? Man it's here already! When was the last time you looked at the price of gas? What is the excuse now for gas being high?

1. China using more?
2. Someone just farted in the middle east

Re: The American Dollar - going to 7734 in a handbasket

charles hit it on the head ...it's our worth - "less" dollars.....seriously, it's inflation, it's not that gas really cost more, it's because our money is worth less on the world market....ie....the arabs want more of it....

Higher Demands for oil, steel, precious metals, and other commodities from India and China.

SEVERE overspending by the US government for the Iraq War, that has caused us to borrow huge amounts of money from China.  This has made the value of the dollar get less and less, as we borrow more, and print more.
