Hey Herb: Gas is at $2.19, not $3.19

As I pointed out earlier in the week, gas prices won't be an issue this November. But "Everyone's Senator" but not mine, has a TV ad out talking about the gasoline monopoly and how it should be stopped.

There are a lot of gasoline companies. In fact, there is Royal Dutch Shell, Marathon Oil, BP Amoco, Texaco, Exxon/Mobil and Phillips/Conoco..and let's not forget about Hugo Chavez's Citgo.

I thought he was old enough to remember Standard Oil? Sstandard Oil was broke up into most of these companies.

EDIT: Now gas is $2.159 here in Green Bay at certain stations, most at the"Big Oil" ones...Amoco, Mobil.
