Oil at $120/barrell. Do silly US Senators and Congressmen really think they are going to keep their jobs?
Something really does need to be done about oil prices and my solution will make people angry but we need to release our own oil reserves and start refining oil again if we ever want to reduce our dependence on foreign oil. And, I am sorry, but it is democrats who are against this. They want to cry and whine about the environment but we have to do something or the whole world is going to be in a major depression. It is just simple economics….the higher prices to ship goods means higher prices for consumers. If we really want to stop paying outrageous prices for gas, we need to find legislators who are not afraid to stand up against special interest groups and do the right thing.
I think in the interests of Global Warming and the environment in general, we should stop ALL drilling and exploration of oil, gas and mining of coal in the US. We should import all of our energy needs, paying money to Socialist, Communist and Islamic countries for our energy needs. This will allow them to afford massive armies with the best equipement available. Before long, they will be more powerful than us and will no longer fear us. Then they will have no reason to attack us as we will not pose a threat.
