Political Factoid

The price of gasoline at the pump
continues to be inappropriately
high, due to excessive speculation
in the oil and gas futures markets.
"Federal regulators are 'paralyzed'
by the threat of lawsuits from
Wall Street firms."
  --  Bart Chilton,
member of the Commodity Futures
Trading Commission (CFTC)
There has not been a "free market"
since before the days of John D. Rockerfeller
and the Standard Oil Trust.
