Who’s Got Gas?

I seem to recall a conversation amongst coworkers many weeks ago about the slow decrease in gas prices.  I told everyone the closer we got to election, the more we’d see the prices drop.  About two weeks before the election we were at $1.89 to $1.99.  This morning the news showed one local pump down to $1.39.  Wow!  Three days before Black Friday, at a time when retailers were expecting sales to be at an all time low, the stock market outtta whack, when what to my wondering eyes should appear?  Even cheaper gas prices are finally here!

And they say the government doesn’t control our economy?  HA!

So should we take this as a sign to get out and spend to our heart’s content?  Not me.  But I’m sure that’s what the government wants you to do.  What?  You can’t afford your mortgage?  Fuggedboutit!  Fill up your tank and with all that money ya save, go out and spend, spend, spend!  Cause this is Amurica!
