7. Money grubbing assholes. Gas has already started creeping up.
They need to be careful, NOW we have the power to investigate their gouging asses! And can we get that whole 'universal interest rate' scam outlawed while we're at it? You know. the one where your car payment gets lost in the mail, so all your credit cards bump you up to 29% interest rates on THEIR cards?? Can we work on that???

12. But as predicted, the election is over and gas prices are creeping up.
I filled up last week at $1.97 a gallon. Today, the prices are an average of $2.05 to $2.09.

24. Most of the increases are seasonal anyway....
Cost of heating oils and such diverting from gas production. Long term, we'll see. Some price increases could actually help the general economy and tax revenues. Not to mention greenhouse gases, etc. It'll hury on an individual basis, though.
