OIL COMPANIES

This is why the government needs to get involved. Hurricane Rita hasn't even damaged any oil wells at the time of this post, but the oil companies are already raising their prices. Just like when Katrina came through, they raised their prices because they claimed that there was major damage to the main pipeline out of New Orleans, that supply the southeast with oil; only to find out a day or two later that the pipeline was intact.

The oil companies know that they have the American population by their short hairs and there is little we can do about it because we need the oil too much.

But what happened to ethanol? That was the revolutionary fuel developed after the oil crisis in 1974. They found out something that people who lived in the Smoky Mountains knew all along, cars can run on moonshine, or better known, corn whiskey. And this was going to be the creation that would break us free of the oil companies. Only its been silenced. They even made cars that run on used cooking oil and that's been stopped. All of these ways to free us from the oil companies. But see, the oil companies today are what the tobacco companies were since the revolutionary war. It used to be King Tobacco that controlled the government. But, over the last 10-15 yrs, Tobacco companies have been losing their power, so in comes the oil companies to take over. After all, nothing gets moved in the US without oil.

There was a story that I can't confirm but I've heard it from more than one source that back in the 1950s a man bought a car somewhere in the heartland and he noticed that he didn't have to fill his tank more than once a week, no matter how much he drove. He figured he was getting around 75 to 100 miles to the gallon. When he took his car in for regular Maintenance, his car was seized by the government. It appeared that an experimental engine was put in that car and it was mistakenly sent to a dealership and sold. And since then, no one has seen that kind of gas mileage again.
