f*cker#1: the Chinese (who happen to subsidize energy prices for their citizens)
f*cker#2: Alan Greenspan, master of making money out of thin air. Largely responsible for dollar's demise. Remember: commodity prices are inversely related to the dollar. lower dollar = higher oil prices.
f*cker#3: the U.S. government, with its deficit spending.
f*cker#4: the U.S. consumer who hasn't saved a dime, took out an Alt-A mortgage and bought cheap Chinese $hit on his credit card.
f*ckees: the American consumer who drives a gas hog SUV / truck.
