If only they could get a course in basic economics.
Then they wouldn't fall prey to idiotic stories about 'how the oil companies are gouging people by controlling oil prices.'

Would make more sense if they got basic training on how to maintain and balance a check book followed by the importance of maintaining credit rating and managing a credit card.
