And then the oil companies, or oil propagandists come out with bullshit they can't find people to work. The very people they laid off good high paying jobs don't want to come back? The fact that they just turned off rigs on active taps and don't want to turn them on again? We're getting raped in broad daylight and oil have hamstrung the government to do anything about a private industry monopoly ruining the average persons livelihood.
At over 4 per gallon at the pumps, it's already causing people to lose work because their pay can't cover their travel to the jobs the full week. We were barely paying bills at 3.25 a gallon. At 2.50 most people can pay bills, but not put much in savings. Above 2.50 people can pretty much forget a decent travel vacation.
