Here is a point I noticed recently. Oil at its peak was well over $140 a barrel, now less than $60. 5 quarts of Valvoline is still about $20. Where is that extra profit going?

Don't like the price?
Once again, don't pay it
Are you starting to get it now? Market forces, charge what the market will bear?
Or do you want the gov. to step in and regulate the life's blood of those oil eating Fords?

^^ :dunce:  :dunce:

Let me tell you how my world works :thumbsup:

We have a few customers and brokers with crappy freight, attitudes, none exixstant bank accounts etc, they're the type that calls late in the day in a panic that they have to have a can pulled from the rail or maybe need one pulled in to make a cut off. They get a "special" rate and if they've been slow paying in the past or short paying it's a money transfer up front.

Should I be nice? Cut them a break? Hell no,

Capitalism works if you work, I have no worry of my houses being foreclosed on, my vehicles being repossessed or food on the table. The ones that usually want socialism are the ones that are lazy or just plains leeches. :p

No, it doesn't. I might, if everyone was forced to play by the rules, but that ain't gonna happen. The biggest leeches are the ones that lobby to have the rules changed so they can shoot craps with loaded dice.

There in lies one of the biggest problems.  I remember a president who not too long ago stated during his campaign there would be NO lobbyist in the WH.   :rofl:
