Oil
The other day, someone made a comment about how nice it is that
gasoline is under 3 dollars once again. Especially after lurking in
the $4.20 range... (I thought that was interesting how that number
came to my head. very interesting.). Anyway, sure, it's kind of cool,
I guess. However, I kind of think it's just some typical nonsense
where everything else has hit the fan, the economy is crumbling, a
solid 15 of my good friends are either unemployed and can't catch a
job, or working some temporary, irrelevant position that really just
puts that money in the hand... But hey, despite the tough job market
and the 800 billion little project that congress passed, it's all
good, because gas prices are dropping, so that offers some relief.
Never mind the change in demand for the fuel. Hey, remember McCain's
(and hilary's, for that matter), clever idea of a gas holiday? hehe.
So crude oil is at $63 a barrel, after reaching a record 147 on july
11, 2008. So over 50% in the past 3 months. Put that money in my hand
then, silly, trailing refineries.
where should I move? I think i'm going to buy an acre of land and
build homes for tiny people on it.
Oh, vote for Ralph Nader.
until next time.
peace.
