I am begining to think the GOP is self serving!!!!
Nationalizing the oil industry would further reduce the supply of oil and increase the cost of gasoline to the public
The reason for the high price of oil is that there is not sufficient supply
The Federal government has prevented the oil companies from drilling for oil to increase the supply of oil
Nationalizing the oil companies will not only not change that, it will make the problem worse
The people in the Federal Government who want to prevent the oil companies from drilling for more oil will now be in charge of the oil companies
That will do nothing to increase the supply of oil. In fact it will decrease the supply of oil and increase the price of oil..
Price controls will not solve the problem of inadequate supplies of oil.
Price controls merely make the problem worse by making oil production unprofitable
When oil production is made unprofitable people are not going to produce additional oil and they certainly will not drill for more oil.
People need adequate and affordable gasoline supplies so that they can drive to work and feed and clothe their families
Currently there is not enough gasoline on the market to meet the need of the population for gasoline
The only way to solve that problem is to increase the amount of domestic oil production.
The only solution? What about harvesting our own resources?
Or we could simply drill more oil. With PRIVATE industry... you know, Americans.
We can do that while we create sustainable alternatives.
Why should we nationalize our banks, our auto industry, our unions, our health care and our oil?
We are on a slippery slope towards socialism.
Yeah lets let the people who put us $14 TRILLION in debt, have more control over our lives and money.
Actually, the obvious solution is to shift towards alternatives and to conserve by becoming more efficient.
This would reduce the trade deficit and be a national security improvement. however, some folks put corporate interests over patriotism
You want the government which has not proved it could run a two car funeral to take over the gasoline industry? History will show that everything the government tries to run gets totally ruined and run into bankruptcy in short order. We will all be riding bicycles to work if you get your way.
Come on. Use your head. Having the government take something over never leads to higher quality or lower prices. Never. That is silly to the point of idiotic.
They bank everything on drilling but the oil companies are not using the land grants they already have. And drilling will not change anything.
