I have an idea for our Representatives. It's a way to reel in the gas companies. How about we find out exactly what the profits were for the oil companies(say, $1,000,000,000.00: I know, it's on the low side), and then figure out a reasonable price for gas(say, $2.55 a gallon). Then we lock that price in for the year. Our Representatives make it a law that the prices cannot go up for the entire year. At the end of the year, we re-evaluate their profits. If they're still doing well, the price remains the same. If they're not doing so well, we adjust the price. Because, I'll tell you, I'm getting real tired of the yo-yo price of gas. And, how about when a holiday is coming up, the price goes up. Or, when the summer's coming, the price goes up for the summer and then down after it's over. Then, we go after the Insuance companies. We have the government regulate the rates. No more outrageous increases. Both of these industries have done quite well, but now it's time to put a stop to their raping of the people. And, if our Representatives have the balls to do this, the maybe they will actually begin to be for the people(you know, by the people, for the people.....).
