Still sucks, but just a tad bit less.

put on your tinfoil hat because there is without a doubt some kind of comspiracy with oil and our gas prices...
Like it or not it has something to do with an oil man being president in some form. Likely not directly because of him but he hasn't done anything to slow the oil companies (his buddies) down.
Fact is if we have a REAL GOVERNMENT not bought and paid for by big corporations somebody would have stepped in and done something by now. Insane profits by the oil companies while everybody in the country is suffering is simply wrong.
Want to fund mass transit systems? tax the oil companies more and we can do it easily but of course schools would get the money before extra rails or subsidized flights or any other transit plans.
