Hillary believes the Federal Government can do everything better. Education and healthcare are just 2 shinning examples. Why not the oil business? The Democrats believe the Oil Companies polute too much so they must know how to do it cleaner. As they won't be out for obscene profits, we should be able to have $1.80 gas again. Sounds like a plan to me.

Any Nationalization of business in the US is one more step into a totalitarian government.

She could pull a Hugo Chavez and nationalise all the oil companies. Then she could do the same for healthcare. And the liberals would be happy with their $1.80 a gallon oil and free healthcare until they try and fill their cars and find out there's no gas for sale and try and get healthcare and find out there's a long waiting list just to get to see a doctor in the first place.

As far as your examples are concerned, they are far better than nothing at all.
If politicians would quit jacking with them and trying to change them to suit themselves with every other admin so they can have funds to pay for their own agendas, those programs would work fine.
They don't even give them a chance to find out where the problems are they just keep making major changes every few years which makes it impossible to assess where the major problems are.
as far as oil is concerned, oil profits are in conflict with the success of small business where 70% of American labor resides. It is also in conflict with national security, when that much of a nation depends on it.
I'm not saying nationalizing is the correct idea, but something needs to be done better than it is now.
Maybe you have a suggestion?

Hillary doesn't have enough money to buy all the shares in the Big Oil companies. Her mouth is writing checks she can't cash. The government can't run anything profitable, look at social security.

Yea lets change our name to the Socialist States of America. The sad part is if they could promise $1.80 gas then they would be elected on just that.

I am sure she would try to nationalize "Big Oil" but it thankfully won't happen. One of the major problems with the cost of oil is that most of the countries that sell it are already nationalized, which is always very ineffiecent.

any time you have goverment in business it is usally a disaster. If the US goverment tried to take over the oil buisness which they could not, it would be a total disaster.
Look at the trouble the goverment is in now without running a hugh business
