~dissembled and *smashingpumpkins86 were briefly chatting about gas prices on Sunday. Toni, i think, mentioned something about what the price of gas was duing the Clinton administration. So, today, just on a random thought, i went out to see if i could find a history of oil prices to see what the price of a barrel of oil was back when Mr. Clinton was penetrating interns with Cuban cigars.

If you look at the chart, you can see that oil prices were very low during his administration. They hit a fourty year low just before the end of his term.

i also found this -

This shows the average gas prices for a gallon of regular unleaded from 1949 to 2003. Prices are not the highest they have ever been but, they were at their lowest during the Clinton administration. They were at their highest during another Republican's administration; Ronald Reagan.

What does this mean? To me, it means that there are signs of definite price gouging by the oil companies. For the Midwest United States, the average price of gas right now is $1.54. Down the street from my house, at the local station i'm paying $1.92, $0.42 cents more than the average. The oil companies need to be regulated.

Right now, the oil company CEO's are being led through investigative committees to examine price gouging. Go to here - [link] and go to here - [link]

Send an e-mail to your representatives and senators with support and expansion of these investigative committees. i just wrote mine. Flex your rights and do the same.
