Gas Prices: Who's to Blame?
Who do you blame for the recent increase in the price of oil and of gasoline?
As part of my job, I read a lot of articles on the cost of energy. Everyone is blaming someone, but no one is taking the blame. Who do you think is responsible? I've listed all those that I've seen pointed at in recent weeks, though very few seem to be looking in the mirror. Some of the categories overlap. |
