Actualy GC with all the respect i dont think that they are giving it away, i know they need to sell the gasoline more expensive then in the U.S because they dont produce petroleum there,but right now i just pay 2.29 for the regular gasoline witch means that they are paying almost twice as here.

the continued decline in the price of crude, which closed yesterday at 44.30 per barrel, is just an indicator of how deep the recession in the USA is going to be. the projections of the economists are dire, and that serves to depress commodity prices, even on the futures markets. i hope our guys here are taking note, and not hiring another 20 Deputy Ministers of Sports. you can bet Mr IMF guy is not too happy with the expansion of the public payroll!!

manhattanite, you are so very right. what else can you expect when 533,000 people lose their jobs in one month? not to mention that 400,000 have abandoned their search for a job, and so are not considered in the unemployment statistics.

Jobs are overated anyways.. Most people hate their job and bitch when they have one and cry when they don't . Hopefully this will be a wake up call to the US who's productivity and work ethic is as low as it can go. It is unfortunate for the good ones but if they were good they will be at front of the line come judgement day..
