Is the plan in Iraq not to take the oil, but instead control the amount that goes out, therefore increasing prices, in which the money goes back to the OPEC cartel and then they buy our bonds in a sick corrupt cycle?

Gee we have oil guys in office, you make the call. Alls I know is I was paying $1.15 when Clinton was President.
Ever notice that whenever we have oil guys in the White House (first Bush, Cheney, second Bush) gas prices go through the roof and we somehow find ourselves at war with an oil rich country? I'm sure it's all just a big coincidence.

Have you ever considered the cost of a vehicle verses the cost of fuel. Back in the early 70's the cost of a gallon of gas was 50 cents in California. A high end American Car was maybe about 4,000 dollars. A foreign import was about a grand. Fuel hasn't kept up with inflation.
The reason fuel has stayed as reasonable as it has is we have found sellable products from what was previously waist we had to dispose of. Today demand has also gone up with Brazil, Russia, India, China, & Korea becoming more prosperous.
Renewable Energy is unlikely to ever directly compete with the energy that created it unless that source of energy skyrockets after the infrastructure is installed.
What is going to happen when the energy crisis collides with the baby-boomers retirement bill?

Other than on the top of your head.
If you do not want to pay do not drive. Are you telling people that the rich people do not pay for their gas. Where do you sign up for this program?

Conspiracy Theory 132,407
Yawn.
Heck, it's probably a conspiracy that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. Who's making money off of that? Why isn't it FAIR with the sun coming up half the time from each direction?
Does anybody know?
