We are is deep doo doo if we let the govt run the oil companies. All bulk commodities go through cycles of net losses, net record profits. The marketplace is self-regulating. Hogs sold for 80 cents a lb, and 8 cents a lab in the past couple of decades. I've sold corn for $1.20 a bu & $4.14. Soybeans for $4.07 & 12.00. At $3 a gallon, gas use will stablize, folks will ecconomise, we are getting to fall in a couple of weeks & folks will stay home. Gas prices will return to a sane price again. All on their own. Don't let the govt get involved. Bad, bad idea. Make a difference. When was the last time you had your tire pressure checked? An engine tuneup? Combine your trips, turn your thermostat up or down a bit? that would have a far more drastic effect on energy prices than govt involvement. Keep the govt out. --->Paul
