Supply and Demand


Gaining knowledge on one the most interesting crisis that is currently going on, can really make a difference in how you view the world. I took a quiz today that surprised me with the reality of the world. Our country by its self is suffering an oil crisis which is changing how people run their life. Trying to find new ways to accommodate their needs each day seems to be more difficult. The demand for oil increases each day even though not may people are willing and able to pay for it. For those who can, are taking advantage of what they are able to have. Unfortunately, I am not one of them, even if I need oil to get around places with my car, it is just not at the reach of my hand. Gas companies don't care about people like me, right now they are the ones making money. Yes, the big bucks are for them and you ask your self why? Well because they are the ones who supply people with the gas that they need for their cars which means that they can give a gallon for as much money they want. Now can we do anything about it? No, we cant change the price, so if you are a consumer, just like I was, then you must pay.

  1. So true! Those guys with the big bucks need to give us a break. How do they expect us to go out-and-about with sky-rocketing gas prices? I guess since we can't fight them, having no money and all, we might as well cope and try to find ways to survive.

    You did a great job getting into character. I liked how you pointed out your character's situation towards the end. The picture is relevant to the blog and the link works. Nice work!
