Politziod Takes On Obama's Gas

Speaking of Gas...

Gassing Up with Obama from RightChange on Vimeo.


Check out the price at the pump in the video. Seem familiar (see below).

Gas Price Rationing Has Started

Today, I was filling up my minivan when the gas pump stopped at $75. Exactly. When I tried to "top off", the pump wouldn't budge. Gas Price Rationing has begun.

Last time gas prices were about $4 as they are now, I noticed that all the gas stations I went to shut their pumps off at $75. When I inquired, I was told that the gas pumps do that to prevent stealing.

Bull Ploop.

If that were the case then how do people with bigger gas tanks than my car (about 23 gallons) such as trucks and RVs tank up?

This is gas price rationing.

They aren't limiting the gallons, just how much you can buy in one go. It makes sense because last time gas approached $4 a gallon, there were many reports of SUV drivers stealing gas. But interestingly, I haven't heard of those reports in this area this go round. I don't blame the gas stations for wanting to protect themselves but I do not like the presumption of limiting my gas intake either. If gas costs so much that I need almost $100 to tank up, then I want to buy $100 worth of gas.

But if word got out that you can only buy $75 of gas at a time, then we'd have 1970s gas lines again.

Well, I'm putting the word out because if a gas station wants my business, it damn well better want all my business and not some portion of it.

Well, Maybe We'll All Lose Weight?

Trying to find the sliver of a silver lining in this dreadful news which I have copied in full from Instapundit.
GRAIN PRICES SURGE ON WEATHER NEWS: “Grain prices surged as persistent rains fueled worries that farmers won’t plant as much corn and wheat as they had planned. . . . While the direction of crude-oil prices are closely linked to the health of the global economy, the outlook for agricultural commodities is fraught with more uncertainty because cool, wet weather has thwarted early plantings in the U.S., the world’s biggest grains producer. . . . Corn planting, in particular, is drawing attention because farmers need to harvest a big crop next fall to rebuild stockpiles, which are projected to reach a 15-year low this year.”

UPDATE: A reader emails:
Your post on grain supplies surging is too polite by half. We haven’t only reached a 15 year low – we’ve reached the historic low (going back to the fundamental change in farm policy instituted by Earl Butts in the early 70s). Whatsmore, the levels of corn in reserve we are seeing now hasnt been this low since 1937 at the height of the dust bowl.

Most of this, btw, is caused by ethanol: which received tremendous subsidies on top of a massive purchase mandate and of course import tariffs to keep foreign ethanol out of the market.

At least 40% is directly attributable to ethanol. The rest comes from changes to grain markets (people planting less wheat or cotton or soy beans for instance) because of ethanol support.

On top of the wet cold spring causing concern now, Texas and Oklahoma are experiencing the worst drought in 40 years. If it spreads to the Midwest this summer, and we don’t have the largest corn yield in history, we will run short of corn in August of 2012 (we may still run short this year too – we have about 14 days to carry us through till the fall harvest).
Ugh. On the upside — well, maybe it’s an upside, maybe not — the shutdown in Mississippi barge traffic is holding up exports.

Permanent Victimhood

'Slut Walk': feminist folly Have you ever noticed that the greatest beneficiary of the Women's Movement as the Fema-saures have defined it are men? That whole "free love" thing benefited men. The no-fault divorce benefited men. Even women going to work has benefited men by easing their economic burden on family raising. Now this BS "slut walk" thing. It makes no sense in any context to define yourself by such a negative and in solely physical-object way. Social contracts like mutaul respect and individual responsibility for one's own actions are vital to both the community and one's own self-esteem. "Liberation" from those contracts simply exposes one to exploitation and permanent victimhood.

The US Ponzi Scheme Is Collapsing

The Unraveling of a Ponzi Scheme
Bill Gross is the world’s biggest bond trader. He runs the PIMCO bond fund with over $250 billion under management. He recently disclosed through financial filings that PIMCO has sold every single U.S. bond in its portfolio. Local, state, federal bonds- all sold off. Gross knows bonds are about to default in record numbers. And most importantly, he knows that the last resort of the Federal Reserve buying our own government’s bonds at auction is a certain sign of Armageddon. When no one is left to buy your own debt but you, you have reached the end of a Ponzi Scheme.

Then there is legendary Wall Street investor Stanley Druckenmiller. He, too, is calling the Fed’s bond purchases a fraud and a Ponzi scheme. Druckenmiller says, “There is a phony buyer of $19 billion per week of Treasury Bonds.” The phony buyer he refers to is the U.S. government. Druckenmiller knows that when a country resorts to buying its own debt, we are seeing the last days of the Roman Empire.

Another Wall Street legend, Jim Rogers, spoke out at a business conference last week. He said he plans to short sell (bet against) U.S. bonds with both hands. Rogers added, “If any of you have bonds, I would urge you to go home and sell them. If any of you are bond portfolio managers, I would get another job…if I were you, I would think about becoming a farmer.”

Finally, we have the opinion of municipal bond expert Meredith Whitney, named by Fortune magazine as “one of the 50 most powerful women in business,” and by Time magazine as “one of the 100 most influential people.” She sees America in financial ruin with 50 to 100 cities defaulting on their debt in the next year.

What do these financial legends know that the rest of us do not?
Read the whole thing and dispair. Then write your local newspapers and tear them up for not reporting on this better.
