Be careful rationing is a slippery slope to total control of the population. Bingo! Doing a little sucking up, Jimmie? You probably ought to stick to Krause. Most everyone else can see through you. Krause can too, but it's expedient for him not to. Agreeing with someone and not getting nasty is sucking up in your mind? Interesting. Herring is a slime. Always has been, always will be. Rationing certainly should be discussed during any Energy Policy for the United States meetings the Obama administration holds next year, and so should every other idea, and those meetings should and will be open to the public and its representatives. Everything should be discussed openly. Further, the Senate and House should hold open hearings on all energy issues except those that specifically relate to real national security matters. -- John McCain: Too tired for our times. |

Since we had rationing during World War II here at home, I was wondering if *that* was socialism. -- No way, no how, no McCain! |

Affordable electric boats will be a reality soon for simple inshore boating use. Gas will be available, but taxed to keep it expensive. Gas taxes will mostly subsidize electric. Electric taxes will begin to subsidize road infrastructure, Road tollway taxes will subsidize the tourist industry. Tourist taxes will subsidize.... Uh oh. --Vic "Everything should be discussed openly", so why is Obama trying to legally silence those who ask about his relationship with Bill Ayers, how open is that? Can we trust a party that says they want open discussion and then uses the legal system to silence their questioners? |

Herring has something you will never have and that is a presidential commission. Rationing certainly should be discussed during any Energy Policy for the United States meetings the Obama administration holds next year, and so should every other idea, and those meetings should and will be open to the public and its representatives. Why stop with energy. Why not ration housing, food, clothing, health care. Why not just determine who is worthy and who is not worthy of attending the best schools. The Soviet Union did this and look at how well it worked out for them. Everything should be discussed openly. Further, the Senate and House should hold open hearings on all energy issues except those that specifically relate to real national security matters. Representative Jefferson, D-La., should be brought up on ethics charges in an open session of the full house. The first questions should be where did the $90K you were storing in your freezer come from. |
