> High natural and petroleum gas prices are the Administration's own doing The citizens may have made a mistake in their direction for government, I can accept that. To squarely blame to workers on the ground following orders for those mistakes is strange, though. That's like blaming the developers at Google who work on chat code for the constant churn in chat applications. Maybe those developers at Google really did tell management, rightly or wrongly, that the codebases were terrible and that Yet Another Rewrite™ was the only way out. But even if that's the case the bosses should have the wherewithal to see through what is reality and what is not, and if the claim is valid to ensure that it didn't happen in the first place. Bosses are going to screw up, of course. No human is infallible. But they are to blame when they do. They're the boss exactly because they are in charge and responsible for seeing through the good and the bad. The worker merely serves the boss.
