    That's because of the left's continual obstruction.

    So, the innovative spirit of the oil companies found other ways to get the oil out of the ground and that's called fracking, which is also hated by the obstructionist left.

    And since 2008, oil production in the U.S. has increased by 50%.

    Since you can't support your claim, I accept your concession.

    Im not wrong. Ive provided you proof just like the last post of Nancy basically agreeing with me while she admits to manipulating the system to make her self rich.

    What have you provided to the discussion? zip zero nada not even one link to support your unfounded accusations.

    so spew on, and play your juvenile games. I got something better to do

    Your claim was increasing gas prices caused the depression. You've been challenged to provide a consensus from economists supporting that moronic claim.

    You have been dodging ever since, because you have once again gotten called out for making (*)(*)(*)(*) up.

    High gas prices stimulate exploration, drilling and production...

    I need what I asked for. An economic consensus supporting your claim.

    They seem to disagree with you. In other words, you made (*)(*)(*)(*) up and got called on it......again.

    Not individual, but sectors.
    And if energy is going to be down and your 401K manager invests in a down sector, you need a new 401K manager.
    And most americans use more energy than they save in a 401K. So it benefits more americans.

    Gas at the pump is still a bargain and WAAAAY behind (years behind) increases in healthcare, education, housing and automobiles....

    Remember the oil business is a business for profit with steady profit margins of 6-7% over the past 40 years..

    I've been hearing that we're running out of oil my entire life...and yet we are pumping more out now than ever before...and we keep finding more and more reserves.

    Besides, no one, as yet, has determined how much is really there and if more isn't being made inside the earth.

    I swear, some people actually think a finite amount was created when the dinos died and that's all there is.....

    Laughable. Not this meme again. Where do neo-cons think the oil drilled in the US goes? It goes on the International market. :roll:

    No, It gets used here.

    Oil is traded on an international market, but that doesnt mean our oil gets transported around the world.

    Cheap gas proves obamas been telling lies the whole time, and the American government really can do things to help the average American. Furthermore, it clearly indicates that the cause of high prices for just about everything, is actually designed by the government, and they merely lie to the American people about it.
