    but it will take weeks for the
    price drop to show up at the pump.

    Flood the market
    Then watch the hedge fund speculators run for cover in a large scale sell-off and the oil futures drop, and in 6-8 months the price at the pump begins to drop.

    just a few days the news said the opposite
    There is no real change in supply and demand, just changing media reports and greed and fear on the exchange floor. we are suckers....and no its not really a free market.

    This Morning-
    Look it up under "World News" : August 15th, 8:05 a.m. "Oil slips to near $93 on rising US crude supplies". To quote-"crude stockpiles in the US rose some 2.8 million barrels last week". This they say is despite rising consumer demand, etc. Exactly the opposite of this article- This morning prices were heading down, and now all of a sudden there is no increase in crude oil stockpiles, and prices are going up ? Such a bunch of Bee Ess, and of course there is no price fixing going on between the gas companies...
