Your car is almost on empty. So you go to the local gasoline station to fill up your 15-gallon gas tank. The cost at the pump is $4.15/gallon for 87 octane unleaded regular.
Your car needed 14 gallons. The cost: $58.10.
You should send a letter to the White House and thank President Obama for the high gasoline price you had to pay. After all, he planned it that way.
House Speaker John Boehner's website as a posting on a new House Oversight Report on the Obama Administration's policies of intentionally causing high fuel prices.
The report has these key findings:
Key Obama Administration figures have expressed a belief that Americans should pay more for energy – a pattern of actions shows the Administration is, in fact, pursuing an agenda that will raise the price Americans pay for energy.
U.S. domestic energy resources are currently the largest on earth—greater than Saudi Arabia, China and Canada combined.
Recent Administration action has already led to significant cost and regulatory barriers that have limited domestic production of oil.
EPA has collaborated with environmental groups to target independent energy producers for environmental concerns not related to their operations.
Some green energy sources the Administration is promoting at the expense of expanded domestic oil, gas, and coal supplies create unintended environmental, security and economic consequences.

How's that hope and change working out for you?
