You want to drill your own oil, or buy it from someone else, and then
sell it for a lower price, go right ahead.
By the way, oil is only very high in _dollars_. Try pricing it in gold
and one will see that prices today are lower than they were in 1999.
(I bought gold in '98 and '99 for $275/tr oz. Today it's around $920. Do
the ratio from $4.50 a gallon to see what gas should have been back in
1999. In other words, gas is cheaper in gold now than it was back then.)
Only the Obamanistas and other commies believe prices should be
controlled by government, which is precisely what "illegal" implies.
Oh, and thank the Greens and Gaia Goddess wor****pers for chanting "Split
wood, not atom!" back when nuclear plants were being turned down for
licenses.
I think it's ****ing hilarious that dirt people are now unable to buy
gas.
