I've Been Thinking:

All week the price per barrel of oil has flirted around $100.
Sometimes it was a little more, sometimes a little less.
It was one of those flirtations that makes me happy inside.

In July the price of a barrel of oil was $147.
Now, two months later, oil has dropped 30%.
My question is:
Where are the candidates on this?
Where is the media on this?
This is real news.

The price of oil spoiled the summer for most American families.
The situation even spawned a new word: stay-cation.
We are starting to see some relief at the pump, but have yet to see other prices come down.

The candidates should be talking about the important need to keep prices down by continuing to conserve.
Because we used less, the supply went up, the demand went down and prices dropped.
The high price of oil killed the demand for gas, it's as simple as that.
The candidates should be congratulating Americans for a job well done.

Read my new book THUGS. It's easy. Just click.
