NORBERT G. DENNERLL, JR, DEMOCRAT CANDIDATE FOR U.S. CONGRESS, 13TH DISTRICT,
TODAY STATED THE CURRENT PRICE OF GAS AT $2.49 IS A RIP-OFF AND THE PEOPLE HE HAS
TALKED WITH IN LORAIN, SUMMIT, MEDINA, AND CUYAHOGA COUNTIES THINK THAT AS JUST
THE AVERAGE PERSON, THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT.
DENNERLL STATED HE IS GOING TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. HE STATED THERE IS NOTHING
WRONG WITH MAKING A PROFIT FOR A COMPANY OR CORPORATION, BUT NOT AT THE COST
OF EVERYONE ELSE.
DENNERLL STATED THAT HE IS ASKING THE VOTERS TO STAND UP AND TELL THE GAS
COMPANIES THAT THEY ARE ANGRY WITH THE GAS CORPORATIONS MAKING BILLIONS OF
DOLLARS WHILE THEY CRIPPLE THE ECONOMY, AND HOLD THE BUYER FOR RANSOM.
DENNERLL CALLED FOR THE GOVERNMENT TO CLASSIFY BIG OIL AS A UTILITY WITH STATE
AND NATIONAL CONTROL IN TIME OF WAR.
EXXON'S PROFIT IS AT $36 BILLION DOLLARS WITH COMPANIES LIKE HESS, MARATHON, SHELL,
BP, TOTAL S. A., CHEVRON TEXACO, CONOCO PHILLIPS, VALERO ENERGY, AND MURPHY
MAKING BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN YEAR END PROFITS AT THE EXPENSE OF THE CONSUMER.
DENNERLL REFERS TO THE QUOTE OF PRESIDENT BUSH STATING,"I THINK THAT BASICALLY
THE PRICE OF OIL IS DETERMINED BY THE MARKETPLACE, AND THAT'S THE WAY IT SHOULD
BE."
DENNERLL ATTACKED THE ABOVE STATEMENT OF PRESIDENT BUSH BY SAYING," THE HIGH
PRICE OF OIL IS BECAUSE OF THE WAR AND OPEC, THEREFORE WE MUST CONTROL THE
PRICE."
THE PRICE OF TODAY'S OIL AND GAS HAS INCREASED THE GAS TAX WE PAY THAT IS USED BY
AUTOS, TRUCKS, BUSES, PLANES, AND ALL THE PRODUCTS THAT ARE RELATED TO OIL AND
GAS, STATED DENNERLL. IT MUST BE NICE FOR THE STOCKHOLDERS AND THE CEO'S AND
TOP MANAGEMENT TO MAKE MILLIONS IN INCOME WHILE WE, THE PEOPLE, ARE LOSING JOBS,
HAVING OUR HOMES FORECLOSED ON, PAYING HIGHER TAXES TO STOP OUR SCHOOLS FROM
BEING CLOSED. IT'S TIME TO STOP THIS PROBLEM! ITS NOTHING TO LAUGH, TALK OR CRY
ABOUT. IT'S TIME TO CONTROL THE OIL CORPORATIONS IN TIME OF WAR AND WORK WITH THE
OIL PRODUCING COUNTRIES.
DENNERLL STATED IT'S NOT ONLY THE $2.49 GALLON, IT'S THE TAXES AND THE HIGH COST OF
FOOD AND EVERYTHING THE HIGH PROFIT OF THE OIL COMPANIES BRING ON. THE STATE HAS
A UTILITIES COMMISSION TO CONTROL UTILITY PRICES. IT'S ABOUT TIME WE ADD OIL TO THAT
LIST FOR THE STATE AND THE NATION.
DENNERLL STATED THAT ALL CAMPAIGN DONATIONS BY OIL CORPORATIONS, CEO'S AND
MANAGEMENT OF THE OIL CORPORATIONS TO ELECTED OFFICIALS SHOULD BE MADE
PUBLIC. THE BEST WAY IS FOR ELECTED OFFICIALS TO SAY THEY OR COMMITTEES HAVE NOT
TAKEN ANY TYPE OF DONATIONS FROM THE OIL OR GAS INDUSTRY!
DENNERLL STATED HIS PROGRAM OF OIL AND GAS CONTROL WILL SAVE EACH FAMILY WITH A
CAR OR TWO $480.00 - $1,000.00 PER YEAR, AND THE OIL COMPANIES WILL STILL MAKE
MONEY.
