Can any political party end the rip-off?

Our oil and the prices at the pump speaks volumes about government reluctance to address this rip-off

To the editor;

Oh, how shameless the greedy oil companies can be.

I thought we heard it all before with their corporate reasons to keep the price at the pump at unreasonable levels.

Interesting to note that one of their favourite excuses was the $140 price of a barrel of crude.

This week, it is well below $50 a barrel and the price per litre just keeps creeping higher and higher.

Well, folks, there is a federal election this fall. Any political party that can get this riddle figured out gets my vote.

Our oil and the prices at the pump speaks volumes about government reluctance to address this rip-off cartel.
