How much money have oil speculators redistributed from the middle class?

in 2013, 368.51 million gallons of gas were consumed in the US, per day.

By one estimate, as much as $1 per gallon of gas is due to oil speculators, which makes calculations simple.

$368.51 million dollars per day.

Or up to $134.5 BILLION per year, due purely to speculators.

So who are these speculators?

Goldman Sachs
Morgan Stanley
Barclays
JP Morgan
Koch Supply & Trading
Bank of America
Shell 

For a few examples.

While dumbfuck cons whine about redistribution, these companies are stealing from the american people – backed by (R) politicians.

One thought on “How much money have oil speculators redistributed from the middle class?

  1. an average american uses 500 gallons of gas per year.
    hence, you spend an average of $500 / year supporting oil speculators, along with your $150 / year supporting welfare queens mcdonalds and walmart.
