Domestic Policy

Gas And Oil Prices Are Boiler Room Tactics

Gas prices amazingly dropped the past week because there was mention of involvement by government officials as well as investigations into the oil companies and the commodities traders. This small drop in gas prices apparently appeased the masses temporarily and that is all it was intended to do. There has been no policy with teeth actually provided and now the gas gouging has resumed.

The supply and demand does not get it because if there was such an increased demand then the oil companies would pump it out. They see the writing on the wall, eventually some country will dedicate enough resources to finally complete an alternative fuel process and then all of this will be mute. However, me and you live in the here and now and we need this issue addressed promptly not years into the future. I say that if our politicians cannot do anything we should vote them out and get new ones, I want someone who can do something, not tell me what I already know.

I also want the commodities trades scrutinized, they have hyped up the oil market because the stock market has went dry. The commodities market is like the boiler room for the 2000’s, and this needs to be controlled. I want action and I want answers, this token speech here and there is not getting it any longer. If the oil companies say they are not incurring any unique expenses, and the OPEC countries say they are not incurring any extra expenses, why is the price jacking up so quickly. I also want this phony pump and dump memorial weekend gas hike looked into ahead of time. Why do we wait every year like idiots until after the holiday scam? Why not investigate it ahead of time and cut it off from ever occurring?

  1. Many say we will see $3.50/gal this summer. If you factor in Iran, who knows how high it could go. Everyone knows America MUST get off the oil. After September 11, 2001 I expected our President to call on Americans to GET OFF THE OIL. I was expecting a speech like the one JFK gave that motivated us to reach for the moon. As you know, this never happened. Eventually I realized that the only way this is going to happen is for us to do it ourselves. To that end I created this idea and have been trying to make it a reality..

    The EPA is offering a research grant opportunity that I believe is a perfect fit for this idea. I have sent an e-mail to a hand picked list of university professors who have experience with government research projects. I’m looking to form a research team to apply for the EPA grant, conduct a social-economic experiment and surveys to determine to what extent the American public will support it, project the economic potential of WPH, and identify logistical, social and political obstacles as well as opportunities.

    All government grants are awarded based on merit of the proposed research. I believe WPH has merit but your help is needed to verify it. You can help by posting your feedback. Let the professors and the EPA know what you think about WPH. Do you think this idea is worth pursuing? We need to know if Americans will support a plan like this.

    Do you have any ideas to improve the plan?

    Share any and all of your thoughts.
