A Call to Action for Americans
worldnetdaily.com — You want oil, a job and a future for your children? Get active and start doing something about the incredibly unreasonable ban the Democratic Congress has against drilling for our oil, we already have! Otherwise, China will continue to drill and pump it, like they are doing off Florida.

Oil passes USD 139 on Israel's Iran threat - dlnaples, on 06/10/2008, -0/+0Why don't more Americans associate their actions (or inactions) with the market effects they so often complain of? It's all the "feel good" politics totally divorced from real world practicality that they are "taught" at university and by the likes of Al Gore and other "green" idiots paraded by the popular media! Plain and simple - animals and trees "good"; people and machines "bad" ... the only "value judgment" they CAN make, at least as far as they've been "taught."
- JFreedomseed, on 06/10/2008, -0/+1I'm fine with drilling for more oil, but I don't think that's the real problem here because GAS PRICES ARE NOT GOING UP!
Did you know you can still buy a gallon of gas for a quarter?
In the 1940’s that is about what the actual cost of a gallon of gas was, and you can still get a gallon for that same quarter today. Here’s how it works.
Today, (June 08), we pay for a gallon of gas with four or five of those green, paper Federal Reserve notes.
In the 1940’s a gallon of gas was paid for with a quarter which contained something of value - about a quarter ounce of silver.
Today, we see that it takes more and more of those green, paper Federal Reserve notes to purchase the same gallon of gas, but it still only takes ONE of those 1940’s quarters to purchase your gallon. You see, that quarter ounce of silver today is worth about four to five dollars whereas the green, paper Federal Reserve note is becoming less and less valuable with each passing day.
The price of your gas isn’t going up – the value of your green, paper Federal Reserve notes are going down. It’s called inflation and sometimes it becomes hyper-inflation. Many countries have experienced this problem where it’s actually cheaper to burn bundles of paper money than it is to use that same money to purchase wood for the stove. You might also want to know that inflation is reducing your personal wealth far faster than any tax or other government program.
Our federal government needs to get out of the business of printing what’s called fiat (funny) money and get back to real money that contains, and is backed by something of value. Something like silver perhaps.

The producers will state the high cost of drilling whether in Alaska or off the shores of Florida or Virginia and let's face it, big oil is going to make huge profits as long as consumers continue their usage and make their investments into oil futures. Oil is a profitable investment and money keeps it going higher in price. We are our own worst enemies!
