Frist backs Oil Companies

He might as well go back to gouging sick people, because he is politically dead meat

Eschaton: "Gouging


Apparently, the Frist-backed Senate gas gouging bill exempts wholesale gouging and only applies to retail gouging. I have no idea if the big oil companies are engaged in wholesale price gouging, but that's the only type of gouging which will have any actual impact on people. Otherwise we're just talking about preventing the occasional and isolated jacking up of the price by a local gas station. Big whoop."
