3. $400 Million dollars in one year to their CEO = Sanders
I cannot wait for this YouTube!

"we must deal with the greed of speculation"

$29 BILLION in income for 50 top hedge fund managers in the last year!

50% of oil price is speculation.

5. Sounds about right.
If it was about supply and demand, there would be gas lines and shortages. Obviously, it is about "something else" - other than supply and demand. We should demand an immediate investigation. Bottom line, it is price gouging and speculation by the large oil monopolies.
