Fat Cats Have Full Bellies
It must appear so, because they’ve been nice enough to drop gas prices. That’s the only explanation I have for coming back from Hawaii to see gas prices under $2.50 a gallon here in GA.
I guess those guys in their wood-paneled conference room where they set the nation’s gas prices have decided that they’ve been making enough profit lately, and that while they were gouging us before, they’ve decided to change their ways and play nicely.
Either that, or we’ve had news of potential increases in supply. But the laws of supply and demand are just for economists, I prefer to blame oil execs.

I think it’s far more likely that a few phone calls were placed by Dick Cheney on behalf a republican party that feels lower gas prices will help them later this fall.
