#4 Why not, as private property owners can't have TOO MANY things on their own property; + employment and job rates, etc. can't be TOO HIGH. D *** ng it, SOMEONE(S) HAS TO PC/PDENIABLY KILL OFF 3.0 BILYUHN to 90%-plus of earth's population, POLITELY BUT LAWFULLY NECESSARILY WID NO JAIL TIME OR EXECUTION FOR GLOBAL GENOCIDE.
HECK, WHY WAIT FOR YEAR 2029 WHEN PRAVDA SAYS AMERIKANS CAN DESTROY THE MOON NOW IN THE NAME OF HE-3? Hear that, SUN, your solar ass is ours once we destroy 1.5Milyuhn-plus Moons = 999,999-plus Earths just becuz we can - SURRENDER NOW TO NUREMBURG OR FACE OUR WRATH IN 1.0 Milyuhn Years.

#5 Bush triggered it and it is a damn good thing he did. The only way "alternative" fuels will be able to make it to market is if the price of oil is kept high. I prefer an oil import fee, but if he prefers to go with building up the strategic reserve, that's OK, too. Better to have the oil in CONUS salt mines than Arab sand dunes.

#6 right now would be a good time for the price of oil and nat gas to drop like a rock, to put big-time pressure on Iran's economy, cash flow. The Saooodis are doing that by temporarily bumping up production. Expect to see the price continue to fall after this very-temporary hike
