Way To Stimulate Economy: Making Fuel Prices Unaffordable

By Semperpapa

I am a commuter. I travel fifty miles each way to go earn my wages, so when I see headlines telling me that soon the price of gasoline will hit the $5/gallon, my curiosity in naturally high.

The Blaze, and other outlets, report that the former CEO of Shell Oil is predicting that by year 2012, the price per gallon of gasoline will hit the mark.

Other oil industry experts say that the price will hit that mark, but not that soon.

Is any of this supposed to alleviate my concerns?

We in America are sitting on an enormous amount of crude oil that is just there waiting to be extracted from the ground.

Such simple process, and I mean it in a conceptual sense of the word, not technological, is a matter of economic and strategic security.

What would drilling for our own oil do?

In the first place, it would create thousands of good paying jobs, something that may upset Obama and the liberals, but would be a really good thing.

Secondly, it would allow the United States to get off the Saudi oil tit and end the dependency we have to sworn enemies of our Nation. It would also greatly diminish the amount of revenue for Saudi Arabia which in turn would reduce the amount of funding for Islamic terror groups across the globe.

Lastly, it would allow the American people to enjoy lower gas prices and therefore greater availability, from their personal budgets, of money that can be spent elsewhere, feeding the general economy.

So what is stopping us?

In simple words, environmental terrorism and its supporters.

Environmental terrorism is one of those phenomena that are characterized by both militant and elitist components. The militants are those who vandalize automobile dealers, burn down construction sites and hate corporations and businesses in general.

The elitist, and the most dangerous component of environmental terrorism, are characters like Al Gore and Robert Kennedy Jr. who fly their expensive, gas-guzzling private jets to made-up conventions where they attack America and its industrial basis with pseudo-scientific witch-doctor falsities.

And they are the most dangerous, because they are given a forum by pandering political elite, which includes the Obama administration, to advance the lies they are personally dedicated to greatly benefit from.

At this point of our history, we as the people of the United States must concentrate our efforts to usher into Washington D.C. and at a local level, a political structure that is dedicated to the solution of the energy crossroad we find ourselves in.

We have two choices: we can either allow the environmental terrorists to hold us hostage to foreign oil and foreign terrorism, or we can push politicians to use the common sense necessary to do whatever is needed to make our Nation independent from our enemies.

The current liberal progressives in the White House and the US Senate may be of the opinion that strangling the American people financially, redistributing wealth and forcing people on unemployment is a winning combination for our economy.

They may even be able to sell the absurdity to the brainwashed crowds of ignorant American liberals, but there still is a vast majority of American people who use common sense and hopefully we will be able to reverse the damage that couple of decades of environmental subversive terrorism has done.

Just my thoughts!
