Why is the price of gasoline going down so fast? The answer\u00a0will surprise you and it&#8217;s a perfect example of why you just can&#8217;t trust the mainstream media anymore. National Public Radio recently ran a story on the plummeting price of gas and oil. Just as if they hadn&#8217;t taken all the lead out of gas the price of gasoline is falling like a lead balloon. In their story N.P.R. speculated that\u00a0the falling prices are\u00a0due to everything from increased oil production by OPEC and non OPEC member countries to the rapidly rising value of the dollar. Their story\u00a0illustrates why\u00a0you\u00a0just can\u2019t trust the mainstream media\u00a0to tell you the truth anymore.\u00a0Almost everything in their story was a\u00a0lie. It is part of a nationwide disinformation campaign by the government media complex and the Obama Administration.<\/p>\n<p>The value of the dollar isn\u2019t\u00a0rising that\u00a0fast that it accounts for the rapidly decreasing price of gasoline. \u00a0I checked with my credit union this morning. They are still paying less than 2% interest on long term Certificates of Deposit. On funds deposited for shorter periods of time the interest rates are even less than that.\u00a0 If the value of the\u00a0dollar was\u00a0actually rising\u00a0that fast then banks and credit unions would be paying\u00a0you more for\u00a0your funds on deposit. The value of the dollar just isn\u2019t rising\u00a0that fast\u00a0compared to the values of other currencies\u00a0around the world that it can account for what is happening right now at the gas\u00a0pump. It doesn&#8217;t\u00a0explain\u00a0the rapidly decreasing price of gasoline.<\/p>\n<p>The price of a barrel of crude oil\u00a0is not dropping like a rock because the United States and other oil producing countries\u00a0have all just suddenly started\u00a0producing more oil in the last\u00a0couple of\u00a0months either. That is absurd.\u00a0No oil company executive\u00a0would voluntarily agree to lower the price of gasoline just because there is an American election\u00a0around the corner. There are just as many oil company executives and shareholders\u00a0who vote Republican as there are who vote\u00a0for Democrats.\u00a0 Neither is the United States\u00a0government colluding with the Saudis to lower the price of oil just in order to hurt the Russian economy and\u00a0get Vladimir Putin to reconsider his support for\u00a0the rebels\u00a0in eastern Ukraine.. These are all government media lies\u00a0which are part of a\u00a0combined\u00a0effort to misinform you.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Sadaam-Hussain-hanging.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-5264\" src=\"https:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Sadaam-Hussain-hanging.jpg\" alt=\"Sadaam Hussain hanging\" width=\"247\" height=\"164\" \/><\/a>Do you want to\u00a0why the price of gasoline is really going down ?\u00a0 The fact is that\u00a0oil prices are dropping so fast because Iraq is falling apart. That&#8217;s right. Interestingly enough we have our enemies in ISIS to thank for the plummeting price of gasoline at the pump. These murdering Muslim bastards are now in control of\u00a0some very big\u00a0Iraqi oil fields and they are selling their newly acquired treasure cheaply on the black market in order to fund their\u00a0takeover of Iraq. There is a lot of talk about\u00a0ISIS setting up a so called caliphate in the Middle East but what these disgruntled Sunni Muslims are really trying to do is take back\u00a0their country from the Shiites\u00a0we left in control\u00a0it.\u00a0Many of the leaders of ISIS are former Saddam loyalists and x-generals\u00a0in Saddam Hussein\u2019s\u00a0dismantled army and\u00a0Saddam Hussein\u00a0was hung by the\u00a0Shiite government\u00a0we\u00a0left in control of Iraq.<\/p>\n<p>Now the Saudis are dropping the price of\u00a0a barrel of their crude oil to match the price that ISIS\u00a0is asking on the black market. That\u00a0explains why we are in such a big hurry to bomb them to &#8220;smithereens&#8221;.\u00a0\u00a0ISIS\u00a0is\u00a0bad for the oil business and they are bad for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia too.\u00a0If ISIS is ever successful in Iraq and Syria then Saudi family control of the peninsula of Arabia is doomed.\u00a0The United States isn&#8217;t bombing\u00a0ISIS\u00a0because they are killing other Muslims in Syria and Iraq\u00a0or because they have just beheaded two Americans either. That is no reason to bomb an entire country. It is a good reason to find the perpetrators who\u00a0committed those brutal murders\u00a0and kill them or bring them to justice.\u00a0We\u00a0might be concerned\u00a0because\u00a0ISIS\u00a0seems to be threatening the Kurds in northern Iraq, but the Saudis don&#8217;t care about\u00a0Kurds anymore than they do about\u00a0the Yazidis. The Saudis\u00a0are dropping the price of a barrel of crude oil\u00a0to try to\u00a0cut off the main source of revenue for ISIS because the rise of ISIS\u00a0threatens their little\u00a0kingdom\u00a0and whatever is bad for the Saudis\u00a0is bad for the rest of\u00a0OPEC\u00a0too. That is why the price of gasoline is falling so fast.\u00a0Life is very strange sometimes. We have those bloody Muslim bastards in ISIS to thank for\u00a0our good fortune\u00a0at the gas pump. That\u2019s the truth and you heard it here first\u00a0and not in the mainstream media.<\/p>\n<p>If you like this commentary then please let me know by clicking the LIKE Button below.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-like\" data-href=\"https:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/blog\/a-perfect-example-of-why-you-just-cant-trust-the-mainstream-media-anymore-why-is-the-price-of-gasoline-really-going-down-at-the-pump\/\" data-send=\"false\" data-layout=\"standard\" data-width=\"450\" show_faces=\"false\" data-action=\"like\" data-font=\"\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 0px 0px;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<img width=\"125\" height=\"94\" src=\"https:\/\/lessgovisthebestgov.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/gas-prices.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail-excerpt\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><p>National Public Radio recently ran a story on the plummeting price of gas and oil.
