Opec = Thieves

As I've been saying for a while, we need to develop our own alternative fuel source(s). Until we do, we can expect to put up with stuff like this. As far as paying for it, I say we take half of the $$ that we give to OPEC nations every year and put that towards developing those alternative fuels. If they complain, we take the other half and apply that to working out our fuel problems.

The last gas station I pass on the way home is owned by one of them turbin wearers.He jacks his gas up every day hoping to get the others to go up. Then when no-one eles does he comes back down.I've seen him change prices 3,4 times a day.He has wore his board out and the numbers won't say up.TOO BAD!

I agree with you and while we are doing that we should....................Drum Roll Please.......................DRILL HERE AND DRILL - NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And oh yes it will make a difference to if nothing else in the minds, hearts and fears of our fine American loving suppliers.

Drill Baby Drill! Those offshore platforms make great fish attractors.

Let's see what the "Chosen One" does. I don't think he will drill, he will say it is out of his hands. It would be a good way for to get all of his skeptics on his side.

I agree with you TimT

It will make a difference only if that oil goes to the US. There is no guarentee that it will. I do not see trashing our environment so that others can profit from it. I also see that oil as an insurance policy for the US. If OPEC and other nations were to cut us off cold turkey, then we would at least have that stuff to count on for emergency purposes until we could get something else going. Use it now and we do not have that leverage and are more at the mercy of those who have oil.

I wish we had Leaders that actually wanted to do right by the US citizens and not their own agenda. Even if it upsets some countries that don't like us or get millions from us. Will Barry and his Administration be different? Doubtful but let's see.
