Oil closed down 0.15% at $86.75 and gas down at $2.42. Nice to see the speculators had a bit of a pipe dream yesterday that disappeared.Quote:

Yup... seems to be going well. Democrats - create a problem, never fully solve it, then expect people to be happy for the shitty conditions - that aren't as bad as they initially made them, but are still worse than before they got control of shit. Amazing logic.
You're right, we definitely should punish the oil and gas companies for illegal profiteering during a national emergency. What do you recommend? FTC order to separate production and refining? Criminal proceedings? Nationalization like almost every other country in the world?
In Seran’s defense, he’s legitimately retarded.Quote:

Sounds like a great idea. Let’s nationalize oil, create a petro state, and use that vast wealth to better the lives of our citizens…right?Quote:

Only 7% of the world's oil and gas reserves are controlled by non-government controlled entities. Yet supposedly only Venezuela ever tried it. Moron.Quote:
