I guess I'm one of those "greedy bastard" oil men. I'm sure I have funds tied up somewhere in oil stocks, IMHO, I BETTER have.

I also heat with natural gas, get my electricity for coal or NG, and without a steady supply of gasoline, I'm out of a job and setting home in the dark.

Or you could push for alternatives.

What do you need more, your oil and profit of water?

Easy choice, IMHO!

Not after they frack around your local aquifer.

Just why because the fossil fuels are available we seem to be hell bent on using them up as fast as possible. No thought to the next generations after us or the rest of the life on this planet. No conserve the supply or alternative energy just drill drill drill till it's gone so it seems.

There is tremendous pressure being put on NY Gov Cuomo to cave on

The Uberrich here in the USA have something in common with their friends around the world. Maybe corporations are more loyal to themselves than nations. Nations are just large groups of people, after all.....

The whole world runs on oil. And while I may or may not be a fan of the giant oil companies (de facto monopolies that should be broken imo) they run on razor thin margins.

Think gas is expensive now?
