Why Is Oil Going Up?

It would make sense if the laws of supply and demand surrounded with by a true free market are in play here but the truth be known that manipulation is in play here and that a bubble is being formed... again... The only guy suffering here is the guy that can't afford $3-$4 a gallon gas.. I for one want my fuel cell car now.. not 10-20 yrs from now..

Falling Dollar: Finally Front-Page News

I think its already here.. making around 70-80k a year really isn't a lot of money if you have a family. Even with that kind of money people can't really save money because it costs so much to live now. For them to save anything, your cars can't break done or your house can't ever need repairs, etc. Everything has to be perfect and last forever. If anything goes out of that median then fixing it costs a fortune and cleans you out. To just live and save anything right now requires, in my opinion, a more modest income making at least 100k a year otherwise you pretty much live on paycheck to paycheck. I don't know how anyone can live on minimum wage. I remember when gas was 16 cents a gallon and penny candy was a penny. Our money has taken a really big hit thanks to the Federal Reserve. It's time they went out of business.

How PHEVs and EVs Will Sabotage America's Drive for Energy Independence

One auto maker that you just don't hear about is Tesla Motors. They've created an all electric sports car that goes 0-60 in 3.9 secs and has a range of around 240 miles on a single charge and a 100,000 mile warranty on the battery. They have other models that have up to a 300 mile range. They're going to start selling them in 2012. Sooner or later someone is going to use solar energy to recharge these things making it totally green. It's just a matter of time in my opinion.. we just need to keep the government out of it..

Why This Rally Will Continue

Oh yay! Then we'll return to $4.50 a gallon gas and home energy bills will rise and Obama will tax the sh!t out of all of us! Life is good...

If Goldman Sachs' Secret Sauce Is Compromised, What Happens Now?

yeah, but its all based on a fiat monetary system that's going to crash to earth one day..

There Won't Be a Recovery

A fool and his money are soon parted..

Socialism doesn't work.. Ask England. I believe they are coming to the end of their "socialism".. Also, let's hear you say that once cap and trade gets passed and you start paying an extra $3,000 a yr for electricity for you home..

Has 'The Trampoline Effect' Come to an End?

Why isn't there anyone trying to prosecute these dirtbags that caused this economic melt down? Why do we keep letting the Federal Reserve get away with their shenanigans?

Gas Prices Will Go Up with a Fury

Oil needs to go to the all time low of "free" as far as I'm concerned. It's time we got off of oil. High energy costs will do nothing but hurt the economy. After 100 yrs of automobiles, you would think that the industry would have learned something about fuel economy and we would have cars/trucks getting 100+ mpg. It amazes me how we can send a frickin' probe to Mars AND control it from earth, but for some unknown reason we can't make a car get 100 mpg. I think the real reason is that the oil companies and automobile makers are in bed with each other. The ex CEO of Shell said that America alone has enough oil to last us another 250 yrs but you dont hear about that in the news. Instead we get the ol' "Oh we're running out of oil... and the price of gas has hit a new all time high..blah blah blah.." The truth is, it's all about money and the extortionist ways of getting it out of the consumer who DOESN'T have an alternative choice for driving a gasoline engine vehicle.. The extortion has to stop..

Prophet Bernanke Plans for Inflation

The only certainty in life is death. If you literally don't have anything to lose, then the coming collapse won't be so bad on you. I think we can all state that centralized banking with a fiat monetary policy doesn't really work and is doomed to failure and has been proven over and over again throughout history. What will it take for everyone to realize this and do the necessary things to correct this problem?

'Helicopter Ben' Was Prophetic in 2002

What most people don't realize is that the Federal Reserve is a PRIVATE organization that created this whole mess in the first place. They're the ones that cause inflation and deflation. Our economy will always be this way as long as the Federal Reserve calls the shots. They are the ones buying up America. WE THE PEOPLE are the only ones that can stop these thieves.

I.O.U.S.A. Movie Is Well-Done and Informative

Hey milkchaser, Taxing the hell out of everyone including the poor isn't the answer. Shrinking the government and eliminating the federal income tax is. America did just fine before the federal income tax and the federal reserve. There are other ways to have operating expenses for the fed. government than by taxing the people..

Inflation Rises to 5.6%, the Highest in 17 Years

The real inflation rate is closer to 17% over last year.. I'm sick and tired of being lied to by the government. The whole system needs all the viruses removed, all spyware deleted and then rebooted.. maybe a whole system reinstall may help...

Dollar's Up, Oil Is Down: But Why?

Maybe we should start burning those dollars coming home this winter to stay warm... that would definitely have an effect on inflation. I mean after all, its just paper...

The Housing Bill: One Step Closer to the United States of Zimbabwe?

You know, maybe the Fed. Reserve/Fed. Government/ Rockefeller is trying to crash the dollar on purpose. In Peter Schiff's book "Crash Proof: How to Profit From the Coming Economic Collapse", he mentions that if the dollar did crash, the most attractive currency to have would be the Euro. Maybe that's what's going on here. They're trying to crash the dollar so that we go to a global currency much like the Euro. Can you say Amero?

Maybe its time to storm the castle...
