The "men behind the curtain" will not let the price of gas go
back down to that level. The globalists need the price high, to
drain the average American of discretionary funds. It's all a
part of the orchestrated decline of he United States into a
Third-World country.

The big fallacy is that we can become energy independent simply by drilling. We do not have as much oil as the Middle East, we do have a good amount of it but it is getting harder and harder to get at. Dick Chaney would love you, 6 months after they got into office he made a speech literally ridiculing the entire concept of conservation as a strategy for energy independence, "conservation is not the way to energy independence, more exploration and drilling are". Anybody who believes that should have their head examined, let's try a little mind experiment just for a moment imagine that we could snap our fingers and make every car in the country a 50 MPG
car, and every home and business had some solar capacity weather for heat and hot water or electricity or better yet both our dependence on foreign oil would disappear overnight no
increased drilling or anything else, and the reason we don't do that is because Exxon and the other oil companies, along with the likes of Halliburton ( Mr. Chaney's former company
by the way ) wouldn't like it, after all how else would they be able to afford those $400,000,000 retirement packages. Yes
maybe we could find more oil but everyone seems to forget,
oil is a "finite" not infinite resource and the only way to make it last is to use less, a lot less plain and simple. Not to mention the environmental benefits or burning 1/10 the fossil fuels we do now

It is long past time for people to get themselves educated about the alternatives to the current mess, then lobby for sensible solutions.

Example: Because the USA refuses to sign the UN treaty on the Law of the Sea, China gets to plant oil rigs off the US Eastern Seaborad, to get oil from US shores to export to China, and not be used in the USA.

It's too late. They sold us on the need for cars and big homes. Now it's their game.
