    I guess the pony hasn't heard of oil subsidies. That's the most manipulated, protected, rip-off industry of all. They take what they want, we pay what they charge, and they know it. Is that better than a controlled market? Who knows. Pay the price, drive down the road.

    We're not discussing politics here per the request of the OP. Oh, heck... you opened up the can 'o worms. Of course I've heard of "oil subsidies." If you had a bazzilion bucks, you could probably get any frivolous subsidy you'd like too! And of course big oil is a protected rip-off industry... as many politicians with big oil ties, you really don't expect it to be any other way do ya? Prices... do you really think that when the Sheik of Arabesque farts, that causes an oil shortage requiring a doubling of oil prices? NO! It's just an excuse for the oil companies to gouge ya some more. The other guy was blaming it all on the Prez... powerful little sucker, huh?

    God I will be glad to be done with training, this trainer is the biggest a hole I have ever met. he belittles me, he is always in such a hurry that a person cant think straight. I cant even go to the bathroom him yelling at me to hurry up. I don't know if I can take much more but I need to stick it out and get this outta the way because I know everyone at prime is not this nuts. Its like complete hell. I want to switch trainers but I want to get done and switching is gonna take time. 17,000 more to go and I never have to see this nut again. wish me luck
