what we deserve

read:
Natural gas supplies are adequate to meet this winter's demand, the American Gas Association(special interest group) said Tuesday, but consumers will pay a lot more.

AGA's member utilities predict average natural gas bills for their customers will be 30% to 40% higher this winter compared with last year, lower than the federal government's estimate of a 50% to 70% increase, the trade group said.

It used to be that they justified gouging by saying," Increased demand over supply causes higher prices." Now they don't even pretend, because government is in their pocket, not for workers and retirees.

No adequate money for social security, increased border patrols, and medicare for the working poor, but lots for big business, Iraq and rich folks. When voting, judge them not for what they say, but what they do. Not voting or voting for
this party gets us what we deserve.
