High gas prices reminder of sour economy
Lewis DiuguidAnyone who traveled over the Labor Day weekend got stung at the pump.
Gas prices in the Kansas City area hovered around $3.70 a gallon. Even though it was possibly the highest it has ever been this time of the year, it was not as high as elsewhere.
That has always been a Kansas City mantra. Although lately, it has not always been true. But it was this time.
AAA reported that the average price for regular gasoline was $3.829 a gallon. Gasoline prices could become as much of an election issue as the stubbornly high unemployment rate in this country.

These were the highest Labor Day gas prices ever. I wonder if the big 0 closing Gulf drilling could have anything to do with this? I wonder in jimmy II’s rejecting the Keystone pipeline could have influenced the price of crude oil? I wonder if all the hope and change regulations could have influenced the price of gasoline.
NO!!! It is not our “leader’s” fault and you are simple racist to even suggest it!!!
Simple quesiton for Nov. 6, are you and your family better off then you were 4 years ago? Statistics show the average middle class family is NOT.
