Oil prices closed at the highest price in history. That will increase everything from asphalt for the streets to your grocery bill.

I mean look at whom we are dealing with here. The Federal Government routinely violates the U.S. Constitution. It is all about taking what they want. When they seized control of California, after the passing of Proposition 187, they claimed it was unconstitutional. Then they had someone park it on their desk to keep it from moving up through the courts. We have been dictated to ever since. I wish you all luck with your attempt to restore law and order. Be ready to act. You've seen recent history unfold before you. We have no excuse like that we forgot!
