The oil prices are soaring and this is the real cause of our recession. We can see the prices of everything we buy go high as a kite because of fuel prices. Truckers can’t deliver because they can’t afford fuel. Airlines are folding up because of fuel prices. Our tourism here in The Pickwick Lake area will be affected because of fuel prices. There is oil in the United States that could be drilled to and refined faster and cheaper. It won’t happen because the leadership in our country won’t do it.

We are in a recession with stimulous checks being sent out. This is suppose to correct everything? I don’t think so. It’ll take most of my stimulous check to fill up my pick-up. If he wants to stimulate me, give me a check every month. We need leadership who will make it their personal ambition to drill for oil here in the States. They need to get these prices down as soon as possible. The recession can be won over. Its called oil reserves right here in the United States. I may be old and senile at times, but nobody is going to pull the wool over my eyes.
