Why bother, it is just another opinion piece designed to blame the oil companies for high gas prices, instead of blaming democrat policies.

Because govenment has ran nothing well or managed to keep a project on budget or get a project done in the last 100yrs for fucking starters . Any time you think it is a good idea to let govenment take over anything just go the the dmv and think real hard about it. Then if you still don't feel like slapping your self up side the head for even thinking it was a good idea then head over the a VA hospital Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Investors control tge price and investors look at what the govenment is saying and doing and move accordingly. You know like when a pants shitting idiot says he is going to bankrupt tge oil industry when campaigning then stops giving permits to go with the lease investors react just like they should. Then when the same idiot runs over pulls his denchers out to give a gum job and beg the Saudi family's to start pumping investors react accordingly . So yes in a very direct way the govenment you so covet dose control the price of oil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
