Here We Go Again: Another Investigation on Gas Prices

Chucles Schumer is at it again, and if you think this isn't another political play, you need to crawl out from under that rock.

U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer is asking for an investigation into claims of possible price-fixing by oil companies.

On Tuesday, the New York Democrat publicly suggested that companies are deliberately under-producing.

Schumer says, “The bottom line is they are producing at 85 percent capacity when they should be producing over 90 percent. Are they scaling back production? Only by subpoenaing the companies and looking in their books will we get that answer."

Does anyone really think this will find anything new? How many investigations have actually found wrong doing in the oil industry?

Then there are those calling for a gas tax for a solution. Yeah, that's clever. Wonder where those taxes will end up?

You don't like the prices of gas? Don't use it. Get a more fuel efficient vehicle. But by Blessed Brighid's Bright Blue Bloomers, stop whining about it!
