>Bad Idea. This would put an undue burden on American consumers.

So your saying that energy producers can't find a substitute for petroleum in
ten years? How about 15 or 20? How about the car companies, can't they build a
car that runs on some alternate fuel with the price of gasoline less
compedative against the alternatives? Since when is the price of oil going up
and down like a yo yo ever good for the economy? It seems to me that the price
fluxuations of oil do nothing but produce uncertainty and prevent companies
from innovating. I get tired of religious and fanatical Arabs having too much
influence on the American economy, I'm tired of their stupid politics and their
bigoted ways. If the car companies get the idea that gasoline prices are going
up and staying up, then they'll do something so they can keep on selling cars,
such as building hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. Right now hydrogen fuel cell
vehicles have to be compedative against a moving target that goes up and down
and the whims and religious beliefs of the Arabs. The middle east is a violent
place due to their Jihad culture and their ever ready willingness to spill
blood at the slightest insult to their beliefs and these fat cats maintain an
artificial hold on the oil markets using their geographic monopoly to squeeze
and then expand the supply of oil while they themselves add little value to
this product. They are leeches that milk the world's economy, taking money from
people who have worked hard, and spending that money on patronage, social
programs, hatred indoctrination and on murder. Its about time the Arabs paid a
price for this bad behavior, and I can't think of a better way to punish them
than for the world to turn its back on their oil supply, or at least the US. If
the US develops an alternative, further innovation will lead to the spreading
of this technology outside of US borders. Its about time that the Middle East's
problems stopped being the World's problems don't you think.

We should be thinking about how to generate the energy to manufacture the
automotive fuel, not how to placate the Arabs and do their bidding. We have
provided a fantastic lifestyle from unearned income for a population of low
skill arabs who otherwise would have lived in third world squalor. Instead of
appreciating us for this, they hate us and attack us using all the money we've
given to them; that money should go instead to alternatives. We should be
studying alternatives, not funding Koranic studies and hateful indocrination of
children with our energy dollars.
