Which is AP's Annual Memorial Day Gas Prices Speel.
I've juxtaposed it with the Cracked.com article per billhicksisdead.blogspot to show just how out of touch the Top <1% are with the Bottom 99%.....;}
" But for the overwhelming majority of the globe, it's just gibberish horseshit spraying from the mouth of an ultra-privileged, out of touch alien. You can't give advice based on a lifestyle that's only shared by a single-digit percentage of the globe and expect to be taken seriously.
"But what about the things that don't take a huge bank account to do, like dieting tips and workout regimens?" asks all of Hollywood in unison. "Surely we could have something valuable to say there."
#4. They Literally Pay People to Live Their Lives for Them
#3. Their Day-to-Day Life Bears No Resemblance to Yours

A drop in gas prices encouraged Americans to spend more at restaurants and bars in April. And that trend could continue over the holiday.
MY EDIT: There's not one factoid in the PO article explaining just how exactly 'Americans' (AP's words for us dumb schmucks;}
Pump prices are down 27 cents since their peak in early April, to $3.67 a gallon, where they’re likely to stay this weekend, predicts Tom Kloza, the chief oil analyst at the Oil Price Information Service. That’s 12 cents cheaper than last year. Over the weekend, U.S. drivers will burn about 1.2 billion gallons of gasoline – and spend $144 million less on gas than last year
And those who would benefit the most from the revenue generated by those increased taxes on the 1%: in improved public transportation, healthcare, govt jobs programs and infrastructure projects, education; are cheering for the 1% that they will NEVER be a part of. They won't even be hired to wash the toilets of the 1%.
The 1% must get a slight chuckle out of it, in the odd moments when they might bother to think about these poor, stupid idiots. SUCKERS!!!!
