    oh 'she' my big bad, a brain fart of 'he' to 'she' is almost as bad as skipping around the facts of posts multiple times.

    Still no answer as to why She is correct, simply from the discussion taken place here..

    She is correct by increasing supply. The law of supply and demand no skipping just simple supply and demand.

    The law of supply and demand. In economics, supply and demand describes market relations between prospective sellers and buyers of a good. Here is a link.

    Frank and Bones is correct.

    Ahh but 'supply and demand' when at most according to the article you linked to there is enough oil there for about 1 year of the US.

    In order to get the supply it costs money..

    Using up that little bit of oil we have domestically will make us weaker in the future, and also bring about 'less supply' should a try crisis occur on both a military level but also an economic level.

    AKA a band aide. No real solution.

    ---
    I'm all for a solution, not quick little packages that look good on the outside, that will have little to no effect on the current situation but make us weaker down the road.

    How about trying to find a better way to tap more of the shale we currently have at a cheaper more effective method?...

    No kidding you bypassed everything else posted, zeroed in on one little thing.

    The point there is it would still take time, would cost a lot of money which in turn would need to be recouped, which in turn would take even longer for your 'supply and demand' theory take effect, at which time the supplies could already be drained.

    :rolleyes:

    So we should do nothing? Are you kidding

    Though we have more oil in the shale of Colorado, Utah and Wyoming than combined in the Middle East (800 billion barrels), liberals and environmentalists have made it illegal to touch it.
    It's illegal to drill in northern Alaska (Arctic National Wildlife Refuge), or off the coasts of Florida or California.
    Oil fields in Colorado are being shut down.
    We won't develop shale oil fields in the Western states
    It's illegal to explore in the Atlantic.
    It's illegal to explore in the Pacific
    It's illegal to explore in the Eastern Gulf of Mexico
    We're not receiving any more leases to drill in the Gulf of Mexico, while China, Venezuela and Cuba are.
    We haven't built an oil refinery in 25 years and reduced in half those we have
    There's enough natural gas beneath America (406 trillion cube feet) to heat every home in America for the next 150 years, but we can't tap it all.
    We have the largest supply of coal in the world, but it's Germany who is planning to build 27 coal-fired electrical plants by 2020.
    American airlines are in danger of going out of business.
    American truckers are being stranded on the sides of the road.
    American commuters are going bankrupt trying to travel back and forth to work, and are being forced to work locally for lower wages.

    It's illegal to explore in the Atlantic.
    It's illegal to explore in the Pacific
    It's illegal to explore in the Eastern Gulf of Mexico and Myrick will fix it by being proactive

    Broken record much..

    Bypass all the possible problems..

    How about yet another thing that could help, but then claim yet again not trying to suggest something.

    Looking into making the construction of our roads last longer / cost less money to build and maintain. This could bring down the taxes on gas, effectively lowering the price of gas..

    Lower gas prices, longer lasting roads, sounds like a good idea to me. But nope instead lets hope on a band aid fix that will drain what little oil we have on the hope that it will lower prices, when in fact it more than likely will not and wont last long anyways.

    It's a solution yet you can't even dispute the 'bads' from it, or the fact that it might not be a solution at all.

    Yeah ok :rolleyes:

    Oil prices eased further below $135 a barrel on Monday. U.S. light, sweet crude for July delivery, which had dropped nearly $2 on Friday on a report suggesting a new increase in Saudi output next month, slipped 36 cents to $134.50 a barrel by 2239 GMT, a less than 0.3 percent decline. The supplt is increasing which will lower the price. The US still need to start producing more crude.

    Oil is non-renewable. It WILL run out. Why do we keep putting off these problems for the next generation instead of getting out of the oil racket all together? I think that is what Grim is stabbing at when he says "band-aid". WE already have alternative fuel sources, why the hell should be we keep beating our heads against the wall with oil?

    We should seek an alternative like electric cars and solar but until then we need to produce our own.

    We can produce clean nuclear power. We already have nuclear waste buried in bunkers from 40 years ago, the dangers from that are more than the dangers of a brand new nuclear power plant. GM, Ford, Nissan, and all the rest of the car manufacturers are already building and selling hydrogen cell and electric cars and hybrids. The more they build the cheaper they will be. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tesla_Roadster
    So far my personal fav :D

    I think that it is good that gas prices are higher. It should in fact be $8 a gallon. Similar to European Countries. Only then we will develop some alternatives to gas ..or think of ...

    We should think of switching to a more fuel efficient car. I took this opportunity to create a page to calculate the savings if we switch to a more fuel efficient car.

    Let us shift to Prius.
