HOW’S THAT HOPEY-CHANGEY STUFF WORKIN’ OUT FOR YA? (CONT’D): U.S. motorists may spend a record $491 billion for gasoline this year. “The average U.S. price for a gallon of regular gasoline reached $3.661 on Monday, according to the U.S. Energy Department’s weekly survey of service stations. That was down 1.3 cents a gallon from a week earlier but up 94 cents from a year earlier.”

You’d think we’d have a policy aimed at increasing domestic production, and at increasing imports from countries like Canada. Instead, we’re sending money to hostile and unstable countries in record amounts.
