Taking a Break...

I have to take a break from the political news of the day. Stanley Fish writing about how Obama will get slammed by McCain.

Clinton's campaign volunteers are old and entrenched and Obama's "remarkably self-generating".

I have to take a break.

So I read the business news. I love stocks, the market, all the stories of the day. Here's a little diddy for you all. Oil has reached an all time (inflation adjusted) high of $103.76 a barrel.

Nice, huh? Guess what that means for you at the pump this summer? You thought 3 bucks a gallon was a lot? Think again.

And through this, Exxon Mobil is now at the Supreme Court of the United States of America trying to weasel out of paying for the Valdez crash almost twenty years ago.

Clearly, 40.6 Billion dollars PROFIT in 2007 was barely enough to pay the rent.
