BloggeRhythms 2/20/2012

Since there's not very much new going on today, I just thought I'd mention that according to CNBC, gasoline prices have never been higher at this time of the year. At $3.53, they say it's already up 25 cents a gallon since January, while experts say it could reach a record $4.25 by late April.

As a reminder, the president recently stopped progress on the proposed new pipeline from Canada, saying his people needed more time to analyze the environmental situation although they've had the information for more than three years. Similarly, there've been no real steps taken to re-opening drilling in the Gulf.

So, I just have to wonder once more, because I've written things like this up often before...just how long are people going to sit still and let this administration literally take money from their pockets due to political pandering? Because from my perspective, there's not much difference between permitting price gouging like this by foreign providers and outright theft.

And that means perhaps the times come for not only for electing someone else, perhaps charges should be considered for aiding and abetting stealing.

That's it for today folks.

Adios
