When oil is pegged to the dollar, and the dollar drops in global value, oil is cheap to the international consumer. As a result, the price adjusts to the international market. If you look at the numbers, the increase in oil prices reflects has a positive correlation with the devaluation of the dollar. If the dollar has devalued because of the national deficit of the nation (and every economist says it has), and the national deficit is a reduction of national income (i.e. reduction of taxes with increase in spending) then the reduction of taxes is to blame for the increase in gas prices. Since I am paying more in gas, and the rich (people making above $150,000/yr) are getting a tax break, then yes, I am paying for the rich man's expenses. Sorry, but do the math...it all works out....
And again, you call me a liberal... I am so far to the right of the republicans that I end up left of the democrats... but that is okay... when Clinton was in office, I was always called a republican.... cant win can I....
