Remember when...

Hugo Chavez was a hero to the American poor because he decided that he'd give away a portion of Venezuela's oil wealth so they could heat their homes?

Well that party is over. Hope you enjoyed the free heating oil.

Another propaganda tool down the drain!

This would be a good time for American oil companies to get really good PR and step in with a similar program.

I'll be very honest, we make close to 40K combined and we struggle to pay the heating oil - meaning we keep it lower (50-55) and wear sweaters/sweatshirts around the house so that we can keep it (with the new prices) under $200 per month.

Last year, this time, it was $400/month.
