Some of the results of Dick Cheney's
How American is Dick Cheney, anyway?
As Americans are bracing for a $4.00 a gallon pice of gas, Exxon Mobile, as well as all other gas companies, are basking in record profits.
How did our country find ourselves in this situation? For years the conservative approach to big business has been that of protectionism, protect the profits of big oil. This was emphasised most dramatically during the last 7 years of the Bush Adminstration.
The signs were obvious from the beginning of this President's term in office. When, two weeks into Bush's 1st term, Dick Cheney held his "energy task force" meeting in the white house and refused to tell his employers, the American people, who attended that meeting or what was discussed at that meeting. We all had a good clue at that time where all of this was going.
Besides the obvious, the price we are paying at the pump, there is also the pure arragrance of this Vice-president that has given us the highest prices of gas our country has ever experienced. In order to see the effect, world wide on gas, I am including a table of the average price of gas worldwide. You will easily see that China,as well as , Venezuela is getting the best deal on gas. Citgo, Venezuela's National oil company is making about $3.86 per gallon profit on our citizens while charging their citizens a mere $0.14 per gallon.
AUSTRALIA SYDNEY $2.63 CAMBODIA PHNOM PENH $2.57 TAIWAN TAIPEI $2.47 GEORGIA TBILISI $2.31 LAOS VIENTIANE $1.66 THAILAND BANGKOK $1.60 CHINA TIANJIN $1.54 CHINA SHANGHAI $1.48 RUSSIA MOSCOW $1.45 KAZAKHSTAN ALMATY $1.36 KAZAKHSTAN ATYRAU $1.35 TAJIKISTAN DUSHANBE $1.32 AZERBAIJAN BAKU $1.15 VENEZUELA CARACAS $0.14
I included a google search for those who want the truth about policies inacted by this President that directly lead us to the prices we are paying. For those that want the truth, you can find in this search, just look for the truth, it's "in there."
