The price of oil is being manipulated. Eventually the stockpiles will run low and then the price will be forced to rise, but until then it's just insider trading and market manipulation.

Yeah. Gas should have been $6 or $7 a month ago by my calculations. These fascist fucks just set our reserves on fire.
