Re: Gas Prices CAN be re-duced!!!
I know how to reduce gas prices (and it doesn't involve some silly boycott):
*Don't nationalize Iraq's oil. Right now we are turn Iraq into a Scandanavian Liberal Socialist state, which is absolutely silly. Privatize the Iraqi oil industry and let companies like Shell and Exxon come and pump that country dry! Think about it guys, we control more oil right now than any other country in the world (Iraq has second largest reserves, we have large reserves ourselves) and we are paying 2 bucks a gallon for gas? We should be paying seventy cents!
*Around 37-50 cents of each gallon of gas goes to the government (state, local, federal). Taxes are tyrannical and are driving up the cost of gasoline. Elminate them.
*Get rid of MTBE. Not only does it pollute water supplies, have carcingens, and threaten wildlife, it doesn't work! Get rid of it!
*Kill all the elk in ANWR and drill drill! This will take awhile, but it will help America's longterm energy future!
*Build more nuclear powerplants! I can hear all the hippies now: NUCLEAR POWER IS EVIL! No. No. No. Its the best source of power we have right now. Zero emissions, massive amounts of power, and little, easily stored waste. Even the French realize the benefits of nuclear power, they got seventy percent of their power coming from nuclear power. It will elminate competetion for oil.
*Allow the construction of more refineries. Duh.
*Get more oil from Mother Russia. A non-muslim, non-arab nation which isn't controlled by OPEC.
75 cent a gallon gas here we come.
ZINNNNG!
