How long must we wait before state and federal law-makers put a stop to the gouging of the general public? The oil companies continue to boast record profits... Duh!! The price of all consumables continue to rise at a ridiculous rate while jobs are being lost and paychecks for those who are fortunate to still have a job don't even come close to catching up to the rising cost of living. Anyone seen the cost of a 5lb bag of flour lately? To all of my elected officials: "Thanks for NOTHING!"
