Of course we aren't supposed to be concerned about the gas and oil companies making record profits, or the fact that our federal government is run by a bunch of gas and oil company toadies. Or that average fuel mileage dropped this year. And of course, no one should consider that rising fuel costs means ever higher prices for everything we buy that is shipped by truck or train or ship. Or that companies will have to lay off employees or otherwise cut costs to make up for rising fuel costs. Don't look behind the curtain! This is all coincidental. It is not an effort to wring every last cent from the lower classes and transfer it to the super-rich. Capitalism works! You too can be a billionaire if you just work hard. Want to watch some Survivor or hear more about a missing white girl somewhere?I wonder what role-playing in the world of Mad Max would be like? I suspect we are going to find out soon.</blockquote>
