When the supply becomes too short, then the cost of alternative fuel sources will become more likeable.

OR, you can stop demanding so much gasoline. IF the demand goes down, the cost goes down.

Until then, stop claiming you're a libertarian. You're actually a democrat.

You have a very simplistic view of the world, don't you?

First of all, when US consumption slows, the oil companies start slowing production and closing refineries, therefore not allowing supply to outstep demand and basically setting their price. Next, there's a giant industrial country in Asia we call "China" that is sucking up every ounce of petroleum it can get its hands on. These two items make your theory of supply and demand a fairytale.

Having said that I must say that nationalizing any industry is a bad thing. The answer lies in finding a viable alternative fuel source. Unfortunately, the only way to motivate people to discover and develop an alternative is to make the current one so expensive it's painful: Painful at the pump and at the grocery store.

Not too wrong Sluggish, but you are forgetting something.

Revenue is generated by Units Sold AND Price, not just price. While the gas companies may cut down on supply, they cannot change the Units Sold. And they make less revenue, and as such, less profit.

Still, your choices and your money are votes.

You dream in shades of Brown don't you?

Lets see here a minute... you don't make good grades in College...which you never stated which one you attend.

You are really close to your Dean to recommend a friend for the Nobel Peace Prize.

You live in the middle of PA and go to Annapolis to sail some lil boats but yet yer too fat now to fit into a Laser.

Daddy paid yer way through Life and someday you'll actually have to work... your Biggest fear.

And the soviet union was a worker paradise ?

This thread fails the Godwin test even before the end of the title.

Also Lasersailor, you might want to research how much direct government support the US oil industry has received in the 60 years since FDR sat down with Ibn Saud on the USS Quincy before you whine too much about state interference.

So if it's socialism for Hillary to steal Big oil company's money....

What is the word(ism) for the Bush administration for starting an illegal war on Iraq to steal it's Oil?

You choose to buy gas, or you don't.

If half the US stopped buying gasoline, the demand goes down and so does the price. Then the price of groceries that is affected by diesel prices goes down as well.

I'm beginning to think IQ tests in order to get a vote in US elections is a good idea.

A choice?

An IQ test?

Hey!

Got some question for you Sir!

You live in one location and work 10 or 20 miles away?

Some people, in order to afford a home, have to live much further away then that.

You gonna walk or bike all those miles every day both ways in all types of weather, snow, rain, high winds, etc... ?

Or are you gonna call in and say sorry Boss can't make it today weathers to bad!

Wonder how long you will keep your job should you do that?

When you need groceries how you gonna get em home? Let's ignore the FACT that you're paying the truck drivers' fuel cost when you buy.

Gonna tie one of those little radio flyer wagons to the back of your bike?

Or maybe drag it along behind you and walk?

That could be a long walk for some one that has to use a cane, or is in the 80's, or very young, or must take the baby along because they can't afford a setter.

Maybe you will go to the local quickie mart type store and pay their prices? And of course your diet will be restricted to only eat what they sell. And you can only use what they sell as well. (toothpaste, soap, oil, etc...)

Maybe you will pay extra and have em delivered?

That is if the store delivers.

When you need to buy cloths?

How about Doctors appointments? Dentist? What about emergency medical needs? Call an ambulance? You do that and you are buying their gas for em and STILL getting the BILL!

IMHO what you call CHOICE for many is invalid!

IMHO It just doesn't work that way for most people.

From my view point it's all LINKED!

Sure you can choose to just NOT buy fuel. But where you gonna live? How much extra will you have to pay to live close to work? You gonna maybe just do without a job? How you gonna eat? What kinda job can you get if you restrict yourself to only those you can walk to or bike to?

Just wondering.................... Do you have a FAMILY?

OH wait! Are you one of those people that subscribe to ride the bus, or go rapid transit?

OOOPSSSSS

They are/were refered to as the National Socialist Party!

One of the major differences between the communist and the Nazi's was with the Nazi's you could own you business BUT they controlled IT! With the communist they owned and controlled it! The main difference between the two was the style or type of socialism.

Read up on em PLEASE!

Communist are called far left. Nazi's are called far right.

BUT BOTH are SOCIALIST in nature!

So if you put the representative republic in the middle of a governence scaled line BOTH would be to the LEFT of representative republic!

And both KNEW...........

"I think that the sacredness of human life is a purely
municipal ideal of no validity outside the jurisdiction. I
believe that force, mitigated as far as may be by good
manners, is the ultimate ratio, and between two groups of men
that want to make inconsistent kinds of world I see no remedy
except force . . . It seems to me that every society rests on
the death of men."
Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes (1841-1935)
American jurist

................. they were going to FIGHT each other!

lol Wraglet you just wasted your time to reply to him. he has the honor of being the 1st and only one on my ignore list.

in the past couple weeks, even when AWMac, Chairboy, and others tried to set him straight with the facts, like you just tried to.

it is pointless. the college kiddo "knows everything and has all the answers". I'm sure you know the type.

don't kid yourself ...
there are enough dumb ppl in the country (both alive and dead) to actually vote this quack into office ...
she plans on raising and spending a record amount of $$$ to get there and with the media on her side, their marketing engine and enough stupid ppl, which the last election clearly showed exist, she has a great shot at winning it.
