I have to say that at this point in life I have no problem when it comes to spotting the lies of  "The Powers That Be."  I will add to that, their puppets ( Our Government Leaders ).  Here is a good example. I am supplying a link below to a story from Associated Press today. Gas prices in California are at record levels and they are blaming it on a 5 day power outage at a California refinery. I ask you,  "What is wrong with this picture?" How can a refinery have a power outage for 5 days and the rest of the state have power? BTW every cent that gas prices are increased  by represents   

1 billion dollars in loss to the wealth of the country annually.
