The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

No gas station gets gas fom anywhere but there local supplier. All stations no matter what Company owns them buy the same gas from the same supplier. The gas station owners are told of increases in wholesale during the day. They are told if you don't get a delivery before midnight then your price is +.08/gal or whatever the increase is. This has happened to my buddy numerous times, and the last time he told the wholesaler if your truck is not here by midnight tell him to keep driving by, and I will buy from someone else.

Did anyone read the Herald this morning? It said something about a CEO of an oil company making 140 million last week on stock profits... That just isn't right. Lets see that would come down to 20 million a day. He made more in 1 day than 20 average people make in a lifetime of working.

What about the two Sunoco (I think, coulda been another company) stations right down the street from each other that was in the paper earlier this year? The corporate owned station was selling for like $2.00. The franchise owner had to pay $2.05 to buy his gas. Guy was going out of business.
He said they both bought from the same place, Sunoco.
The no name station I usually got to, which reminiscent of the 70's was out of gas today, is consistently 20-30 cents cheaper than the Mobil across the street. How can that Mobil stay in businees? There's never anyone there. He obviously can't be getting his gas from the same place, otherwise he'd lower the price so he can compete. |

He will burn in hell....since you raised "religion" by using the word "hell", let me simply say, "It will be easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, then for a wealthy man to enter into the kingdom of God." - Jesus Christ..............nuff said......... |
