Gas prices and the dollar and why things are only going to get worse

Recently I have ran across a few articles that said gas isn't really going up in price, its the fact that the dollar isn't worth as much as it once was. This was due to a few factors but major ones are: 1.) The increase in the amount of hard currency in circulation has increased by 24% over the past 4 years. 2.) The increase in digital currency from debt provided by the government approved bailouts and the federal reserve $16 trillion dollar secret loans it gave itself. Think of it like this, the U.S. dollar is stock. The Federal reserve is major stock holders (of our debt). They decide to split the stock they have (the $16 trillion in secret bailouts they gave to themselves) and don't tell the minor stock holders (U.S. citizens) nor do they split the minor share holders stock. Now their shares have doubled while your shares of course have just stayed the same. This means your money is now worth less but since they doubled theirs they have enough to stay status quo. Of course this isn't allowed anywhere in any business practice accept by the Federal Reserve. This gives you the present situation we have today. The scary part is that there is a little over 1 trillion dollars in digital currency floating around and well over $30+++ trillion digital dollars in debt alone. How can we get a sense of what the dollar is really worth? Gold has been one way that has always held a stable standard and price. So the cheapest you could buy gold for in 2008 was $713.50 an ounce, in February @$1748.00 an ounce. This means that the dollar is worth less than half (40%) of what it was. What can be done about it? The federal reserve is a private entity formed from a group of major banks. One of the biggest is Goldman Sachs the top corporate contributor to Obama in 2008 and now one of the biggest Corporate contributors to Mitt Romney. Don't expect the government to fix this problem. This is a problem that only the citizens of the United States can fix and the first step is making everyone aware of the problem. Most people have no clue that the federal reserve is not "Federal" in any way, let alone how they are manipulating the money supply.

Everything seems to be about manipulation. Manipulating currency and prices. Manipulating thought. Manipulating the manipulators in an elitist game of freeze tag. When American does fall (I'm not trying to be outlandish; all countries fall. The earth's going to be around for a long, long time) you can bet that the masses are going to finally get even with the manipulators. Some of the manipulators will convince some folks that it's this guy or that guy. But I have a feeling most will be wise to the elite ruling class of politicians and big-wig business people across the board. Most are going to realize that the only difference between the R and the D is the R and the D. Notice how it's always a win-win situation if you're in a position of power, whereas it's always a lose-lose for everyone else. I'm breaking out in a broken rendition of Twisted Sister right about now.

The new Mantra should be; the root of all evil is the manipulation of the money supply, instead of love of money.

The paper currency would remain in limited supply. If an institution is allowed to create money who would get paid first. The ones who own that entity. How much would they pay themselves? An unlimited number. That is what they did.

The problem with this issue was from those business community that decide the price of oil. The problem also aggravated because of the issue in Iran, where the President in that country is arrogant enough not disturb in his plan to terrorize the entire world. Leader of all nation must act into this crisis to stop messing the entire world and make all people being kill due to poverty, financial problem and more...
