Oil Industry Revenues Plunge, Bailout Requested


The oil industry has seen its revenues plunge by nearly two-thirds and are now requesting immediate government bailout funds so they can pay their top executives hundreds of millions of dollars in bonuses . . .

Just kidding, but nothing would surprise me anymore.  Actually, they won't need a bailout because the whole industry and the speculators are pushing for prices to rise again, and it appears they are succeeding. 

I have said it before, don't be lulled into a sense of false security by lower prices on fuel.  I have read many articles lately that we Americans are slipping back into our bad and wasteful fuel consumption habits.

Here are some past posts on conserving fuel:

Don't get sloppy with your fuel conservation-- it will cost us all if you do . . .
