Can't buy it? Tough! Eat your oil!
Ought to go well with a nice thick grilled filet of camel ass!!!
opec isn't the only group selling oil..they could produce more supply but they choose not too...but there is more supply in canada ...its really not opec's fault...

what you propose would just make the economy worse and would create a hostile situation that would end up being worse for us...

the market controls prices...there might be some collusion in opec but considering there are larger oil companies than the ones in opec and not involved with opec at all

the market is the market and our own government in america particularly the dems in congress and environmentalists is making sure supplies stay low because they want gas prices high so we are forced to use fossil fuels less...i believe murtha said he wishes the price was 5 dollars a gallon
