And what are you gouys doing with the tank fund??? Are you going to keep that a secret from the public?? Just to make people aware. The state is planning on ending the tank fund. Why is this a big deal you ask?? Well, as most people don't know the oil companies do not own a majority of the stations in the state. There are only 2 companies that own a large amount of stations but those companies lease them to private jobbers who are the ones that pay the expenses on the property not the big company. In the event that the state decides to nix the tank fund, you will be seeing multiple stations closing and in turn be prepared to drive 20 miles to get to an open gas station. If the stations are forced to pay for tank insurance then as I just said the little guy trying to run his business will close. Station owners are paying small fortunes just to keep gas in the ground and make their money back. Why don't you ask Obama why he hasn't opened up both coasts for production to drop the price because he won't his energy secretary has said from day one that they want gas to hit $5. And by the way the big oil companies don't care about CT because there are counties in other states bigger than our whole state, there are more people in NYC than CT. Lets say shell and exxon pulled out of CT, it wouldn't affect there bottom line at all, they won't even notice. View Comment
I think i saw in the article that the town has to pay for the cost of the overtime, which makes sense because "Occupy anything" wants everything to be free on their end. They don't care if the town or others have to pay for something as long as its free for them. View Comment
I think this event is stupid. I get everyone has the right to protest but I have the right to go about my day without being bothered by this nonsense. Not everyone in town is a millionare. View Comment
