New High in Crude Oil Price 6 4 2009

Well, crude oil continues it price rise. On Thursday, 6 4 2009 the high price was $69.60 per barrel, but it settled a little below this price. Weak dollar is influencing the rising price and also expectations for a pick up in the economy. However, basic supplies are still high, so it is speculators and anticipation pushing price upwards.

So, let me understand this correctly.......

1. It's the speculators who did this

2. It's Obama who did this

3. It's the devaluation of the dollar that did this

4. It's the printing of the dollar that did this

5. It's someone's executive friends & associates who did this

Just want to be clear who and whom I shall be angry with, when my 2 for 1 cruise turns into a double the price cruise!!!!!!

6. Every traveling PAX for not purchasing 4 wheeled luggage, siting on it and using that as transportation (no matter how far away it is) to the ship.

So what people are saying is that they'd rather have double-digit unemployment and sky-high interest rates to keep oil prices low. Nice.

I just made a payment on a cruise, it has the fuel charge. I figure it will stay there or we will get an OBC. It is just the cost of cruising. I book factoring that in.
