I'll bet that Dicque Cheney is working right now with his "BIG OIL"
buddies to try to knock the price of gas down temporarily two weeks
before the November elections.
Sure he is Harry. Sure he is.

The blame for the price of oil doesn't reside with politicians, current
or past.
The blame resides with us.

I think a steep "excess profits tax" would tighten things up a hair,
that and members representing the public and responsible to it sitting
on big oil boards.
How will that affect the price of a barrel of oil here? Or in Japan?
or in China? or in Sweden? or in Great Britain? or in Germany? or
Italy?

Eisboch
Oversight and pressure, and the excess profits tax could be used to help
non-profit entities unaffiliated with big oil develop alternative energy
sources.
Wistful thinking. Despite your protests, industry drives innovation and
technical development, not "non-profit" centers staffed with lifelong
members of academia making a living on government grants. I've been
exposed to both for many, many years.
Industry is what makes things happen and imposing more taxes on it simply
slows things down.

Eisboch



I see no reason to trust Big Oil, and I wasn't suggesting academia.

Harry, your original comment was pure, liberal, anti-Bush, stupid. But, it
did get Eisboch talking to you again, to tell you so. Therefore, it must
have been worthwhile.


You don't really think I give a damn about what your three crosswired
synapses produce, do you?

If you didn't care you wouldn't respond.

You ought to consider putting a halt to your projecting, Blurt.

To me, the non-thinking, doctrinaire *far* righties like Herring, you,
and a couple of others here are just subjects for ridicule, certainly
not anyone to take seriously.

Why would I care what you think? What you think doesn't matter.

Harry, you're the reigning expert on receiving ridicule. I'll bow to your
expertise in that arena.

How's the lobsta' boat?
