As a consumer I am finding it harder each day to pay for gasoline to get to work and to buy fuel oil to heat my home. I understand that America is all about capitalism and everyone trying to become wealthy. But the oil speculators are bringing Americans to their knees. For example if yesterday to cost an oil company 25 dollars to get a barrel of oil from the earth, today, logic would dictate that it still costs the oil company 25 dollars to get a barrel of oil out of the earth. For the speculators to say that yesterday the cost of a barrel is 90 dollars and at the end of the business day that same barrel now costs 104 dollars is un-reasonable. Please, Please help us small Americans to continue to live and work with some self dignity. Without some type of reasonable controls, public assistance or becoming homeless is the only thing left while wild uncontrolled speculation rules America. thank you for allowing me to give you my comments.
