While we can’t get away from rising oil prices the fact remains that our government has imposed an incredibly high tax on each gallon of gas at the pump. It’s time we hold our representatives to account for those aspects they control that contribute to the high cost of living.
Who is getting the money from this wrongful price increase? Is it going straight into Keith Mitchell’s pocket?
How is this increase justified? The price of oil fell by nearly 5US$ per barrel in the last month. Our fuel prices should have gone down not up. Somebody is cheating us.
