Where Is The Rioting

A gas station owner in Alabama was killed while trying to stop a gas thief.

Husain Caddi was eyeing an SUV who was filling up their gas tank when they decided to take off. He thought it was a good idea to give chase and to grab onto some part of the vehicle. He would eventually fall off, and end up getting ran over by the SUV's back tire. He died.

And I say fucking good. Greedy piece of shit. Was the $52 worth it tough guy? Maybe if oil didn't cost $65 a barrel, people wouldn't be driving off with unpaid gas as often. I wish the article stated what the prices were at that particular gas station. But that's ok.

You see, with this whole gas price situation, there are many levels of greedy pieces of shit. It all trickles down to the dot-head/towel head who owns the gas station. Hey, don't get mad. It's true. They have dots on their forehead and they have turbals on their head. It's not racism. It's labelism.

So, back to the levels of greed. It starts with the middle eastern governments that we are dependent on. Then it falls down to OPEC. I believe, in my opinion, that OPEC is the biggest thief in the chain. Then OPEC sells to the oil companies, and then they refine it and send it off to gas stations. Those individual gas stations order the gas the same way a supermarket orders any item on its shelf. Then they set their price. And that's the key.

You see, there's a reason why gas will be 2.70 in one state, and then 2.40 in another. This is the degree of greed. Both of those gas stations are buying their gas at the same price. It's all a matter of adding mark-up. So in the end, for that extra mark-up, you can indeed put the blame on the individual store owners.

And if all of the store owners would rally and do something about these prices, then maybe shit like this wouldn't happen. But why would that ever happen? Anyone who is connected to oil is getting filthy fucking rich. Goto any financial site and look at a 5 year stock chart for Unocal, Exxon Mobil, ChevronTexaco, etc. Anybody who owns a gas station is seeing absolutely massive record profits. But I thought they were only balancing supply and demand? I thought the price was only determined on the cost of oil at the wholesale level? Bullshit. Something funny is going on. Otherwise, every company that sells gas wouldn't be achieving record numbers. They should be at least close to consistent and steady profits. Not massive rapid growth, which is what any chart will show in at least the last 8 months. It's bullshit.

And that's why people will drive off without paying. And I say good for you. I'm glad, and I'm happy it's happening. I hope people fucking riot. I hope people start burning down gas stations. I hope people start taking bolt cutters to gas pump cords. (That's my own innovation, by the way) I want to see a little bit of chaos to match the outrage. Chaos will get things done.

The fact of the matter is, I don't see our oil-connected President/Vice President making leaps and bounds to do something about this. I hate to say it, but it's true. I'm not making any direct accusations. I don't think we went to war for oil. But what I do know is that our President and Vice President both were CEOs of oil companies, one of those being one of the world's biggest. This is a fact, and when these people are in charge, the same people who if they were not elected officials would be orgasming at the very sight of their bank accounts right now, there is room for a lot of eye-brow raising when you have $2.59 gas.

When you're in charge of a company that sells oil, you want to be able to sell it for as high as possible. When you're a seller of anything for that matter. And because they are both former sellers of oil, it is just impossible for me to have any hope of something being done. And that's why I want riots. That's why I want to see people throwing Moltov Cocktails at gas pumps. I want their infrastructure to be attacked in retaliation to our wallets and bank accounts being attacked. It's a horrible thing to put absolutely insane prices on something that every American needs. This isn't bubble gum. This is what gets us to work every single day. We can't ride bikes, and most don't have mass transit. But some people are effected even worse than people just driving to work.

Like fucking me for example. I am someone whose income is directly effected by these gas prices. It's not like I have to pay a few more dollars every week for gas. No no no. Let's do a little quick math.

I deliver pizzas. When I started about a year and a half ago, gas prices were $1.69. And those were high prices at the time, by the way. For work, and for work only I need 8 gallons every day and I work 5 days a week. A year ago, my annual fuel cost would be $3,494.90. Using that same formula, my annual fuel cost this year, at $2.59 a gallon, will be $5,387.20. The difference? 1803.20. I don't know about you, but that's a lot of fucking money. Just to put it into perspective, its $150 a month, or $34 a week, or $5 a day. The day figure includes 365 days, not working days. This is a lot of fucking money, especially to a 19 year old with a car payment.

This isn't negotiable for me. There's no way I can do anything about this. All I can do is bend over and take it, and it really fucking sucks. Every single day when I see those gas prices, I get pissed off. It's a reminder of how much money is being unfairly ceased from me by greedy oil companies. This is precisely why I smile and laugh when I see a story like this. Good for you, Husain. I bet you won't be enjoying the money you and company you represent steal from people who drive, which is just about everyone. So yeah, the money you steal from everyone over 16. You people are fucking horrible.

And for the people who invest in any company related to oil. You are just as guilty. You invest your money into these companies that are robbing us, and you're the ones who are going to get our money back whenever you decide to sell your stock. Anyone who bought oil stock 1-2 years ago is going to get really fucking rich. It makes me sick, because it's money stolen from me among just about everyone else. It's the rich stealing from the poor. But that's capitalism.

And to match capitalism, I'll invoke "Sickism", which is my philosophy, to match it. And a part of that philosophy is laughing my fucking ass off and being filled with glee when I see that a gas station owner kills himself while trying to stop someone stealing gas. I hope the $52 was worth it, douche bag. And I hope you're enjoying those 72 virgins in paradise, since you sort of died a martyr.
