Letters to the Editor: Oil companies drive all costs up

|tab|

To our friends, the oil companies we the workers adore the higher prices you have placed on us. |ret||ret||tab|

By raising the price of oil, you have raised the prices on food, clothing, building material and all the rest of goods we must buy.|ret||ret||tab|

Because of you, there won't be as many sales, so workers will be laid off. Nor will they buy they have no money! More will be laid off, they won't buy no money and on it goes. Businesses will close due to no sales; more will be laid off.|ret||ret||tab|

In the past three years many thousands have been laid off, and in days to come many more thousands will be laid off. |ret||ret||tab|

News media keeps saying the economy is great and gas will get higher, what planet are they living on? |ret||ret||tab|

The news media does not talk to the ones laid off. Why? They don't want anyone to know the fate of these people.|ret||ret||tab|

I live on a fixed income, and because of gas prices increasing, I personally will not fish as much. I won't buy anything I can do without. I am going to help someone lose his or her job, not that I want to, I just can't buy as much as I have been. Thank you, oil companies!|ret||ret||tab|

Stores don't sell as much. They raise prices to make up for the "no" sales, thereby losing more sales, then they raise prices again. On and on it will go.|ret||ret||tab|

Oil companies could remedy this by not being so greedy. They could use the Alaskan oil instead of selling it to Japan. Why get richer and richer? You can't take it with you.|ret||ret||tab|

God still owns everything; we are just using what we have while we are here. What we have is God's, not ours!|ret||ret||tab|
