I'm Really Not a Conspiracy Theorist, But...

If any of you reading this are true conspiracy theorists, please don't try to friend me. I generally don't get along with your types because the way you connect dots is ridiculous, your facts are usually made up and your conclusions are at best leaps of faith.

That being said, why did gas go up $0.42 in one single jump at all gas stations at midnight the night of election November 6, 2012? I'm sorry I don't have before and after pictures. It wouldn't even be believable. I never subscribed to the all-powerful, secret "Gas Price Czar" that sends down orders to all gas stations what the prices are to be, but after last Wednesday, there cannot be any other explanation that He exists and that Obama had corrupted this mystery man to help get him elected. The thing is, gas price spikes and dips are very predictable. When oil goes up, gas follows one to two weeks. When oil goes down, oil follows. When there is a problem in the Middle East, gas spikes up pretty quickly - usually within a couple of days. When there is a hurricane in an area that has off-shore drilling, there is usually a pretty quick spike in price. But Hurricane Sandy did the opposite. Before Sandy hit, oil refineries were shut down so gas production stopped, but there was so much devastation, that gas demand dropped enough to cause gas to go down. We saw this. It happened as expected. Gas in my neighborhood gradually dropped from $3.49 all the way down to $3.07 over the course of about a week immediately after Sandy hit. Late Tuesday evening, gas was between $3.07-3.09 at all gas stations. Very early Wednesday morning, gas at my local station was $3.49. Now NORMALLY when gas moves that much that quickly there is ALWAYS another station nearby that still has the old price. Not every gas station changes at the exact same time - in fact I've seen spans of up to 36 hours where nearby stations have not yet adjusted to a major change in gas prices.

Not Wednesday after the election. With absolutely zero warning, nothing in the news, no change in oil price, no terrorist attacks and no new hurricanes or any other news that would warrant a significant change in gas price, every single gas station, all within several hours (maybe minutes) popped their price by 40-42 cents. Am I the only one that feels like there is something very fishy about that?


In other conspiracy news, can someone explain to me why more Mormons would vote for John McCain in 2008 than for the Mormon, Mitt Romney in 2012? Please find a plausible explanation for this apparent fact...

America has lost her way.

  As I look back at the last few months leading up to the election of 2012 I am perplexed as to how the fuck the majority of the America people could not for the life of themselves see that the emperor has no clothes.  He was elected on hope and change and the promise of a new day and the people bought it hook line and sinker.  He ran his second campaign based on hate and revenge and the people bought it hook line and sinker because they wouldn't have bought the old message.  Why wouldn't they have bought the old message ?  The simple answer, "cause it never came true", it was all smoke and mirrors.  There was never any hope and change unless you consider moving America to a communist state.  We now live in a country where the majority of people feel like victims and that the government owes them a life and that hard work and perseverance will never pay off.  We live in a world where ignorant children think that the way you make it big in this world is by accident or coincidence.  Where American idol, America's got talent or Britain's got talent is how you make it big and none of the winners worked their ass off to be who they are. It is sick to think that the media in America is also pushing this as reality.  Ive lost faith in the American people to do what is right not what you want but what is best for the world not your individual selfishness.  Shame on everyone of you fools that voted to line your pockets with hard working Americans money.  Damn you thieves  damn you.
