    Also I lol'd @ 87% of Americans thinking increased drilling would lower energy costs for consumers.

    Yeah, I agree. That supply and demand thing is complete bullshit. John Keynes is my hero. He did such a good job with the Treaty of Versailles, they let him screw up lots more stuff.

  • Simple supply and demand doesn't translate to the oil market. But you're 4.0 Harvard Accepted ass knew that right?

    I'm all for increased domestic drilling... It's a win-win all the way around ... I'd use it to buy time to develop all the other energy sources and means of power ...

    ... On a side note D2D, the Phil Robertson avatar does not make you look intelligent....

    ... But then again maybe you are very clever and are maching him at 5,000 mph... Which in turn makes you very intelligent ...

    Abundance!!

    =)) Oh, I don't know... Time is definitely on my side the past two months, and Obama is the gift that keeps on giving.

    I was going to change the avatar today, but since so many don't like the First Amendment when it applies to someone who doesn't agree with Zobamies, I'll keep it a bit longer.

    It would. It is somewhat inelastic, but there is still a demand curve that matters. What do you think would happen if the government Putin price a price ceiling? Shortages.

    It would also be lower if the government didn't make more off a gallon of gas than the oil company.

    The Federal Reserve has more to do with the price than any other entity.

    Thanks for mentioning the Federal Reserve. Considering the massive size of the debt, the percentage of the budget that goes to paying interest on the debt, and the phony interest rates manipulated by the Fed, it is a very simple algebraic calculation to figure out what would (will) happen if (when) interest rates went (go) to 5%; economic collapse.

    Obama is doing everything he can do to keep the bubble from exploding. Denial is not a River in Egypt. It's a class taught at Middlebury Voc Tech.

    I hate to be "that guy", but everything you mentioned here started well before Obama became President.

    What the fuck does that have to do with fixing the problem? "We have spent the last 30 years replacing what worked, with what sounds good." Thomas Sowell.

    This illustrates the difference between "American Management" versus "Japanese Management; Japanese Management focuses on fixing the problem, American Management focuses on pinning the blame on somebody (almost always your predecessor).

    The price of oil is set by futures trading and any increase in supply would be largely insignificant.

    Since Obama took office US oil production has reached an all time high, and the price of oil and overall energy costs have greatly increased:

    Point being Obama sucks at energy costs and global warming issues and he can suck a little less by trying to decrease US production that would really do nothing but line the pockets of the major oil manufacturers.
