It has come true, at least for now

I had a dream, I dreamt that one day the man in the box would no longer be seen as an enemy of the people. That the man in the box would no longer be seen as an evil box man. That the man in the box would not be seen as the evil man raising gas prices for my own benefit. A day when the man in the box would no longer be accused of stealing the fuel rewards of everyone who buys groceries. Alas this day has finally arrived and it is a beautiful thing. I am no longer the man who is yelled at relentlessly and accused for the high gas prices. Not since the prices have gone down have I been called a crook. In fact the opposite is now occuring. People cheerfully walk up to the window to pay for gas now. People are bragging that their H2 now only takes sixty dollars to fill up! Some people are so pleased with the low gas prices that some try to give me extra money--in all honesty this is not the case and it is due to the fact that many people are evidently unable to count--out of the goodness of their heart. Days are good for the man in the box currently. Unfortunately the man in the box knows better than to allow these happy days to shield my eyes from the truth. Once winter turns into spring and then spring turns into summer as always fuel prices will shoot up and the man in the box will once again be turned into the horrible person who raises the gas prices for his own profit. And with the summer price hikes the box upgrades I have been waiting for will finally become a reality.
