is that the oil companies jack up prices before elections if Democrats are in power and drop the prices if Republicans are in power.
If they do it, why not the fed? Probably filled with neocons and I just finished an article in the Sierra Club magazine about how Biden had a moratorium in place on new LPG terminals and limited development in the ANWR and now companies are in a gold rush mentality since Trump got elected. Those 2 things alone are more than enough motivation for some election tampering.
