If there were in fact petrol shortages in the US i would not be surprised if the US government was lying about it. It's just another of the lies rolled out on a regular basis. There's GDP growth, there's no inflation, and there's no unemployment.
whatever.

This article posits the question - which of the two weekly inventory reports do you believe. One says inventories increased by 300,000 barrels and the other inventories decreased by over a million.
Now i can accept the fact that there maybe nothing to it. It just seems that government always get things wrong in the 'right direction'. They have never accidentally or on purpose understated GDP growth. Eventually the man in the street will KNOW something is wrong regardless of what the government says.
