Here Old, I typed in the words for you, now go read and enlighten yourself.

I understand your frustration, everything seems to constantly go up while what we make seems to stay the same. But imposing unconstitutional, an-American, anti-capitalist restrictions on the free markets is not the way to go. That's what they did in the former U.S.S.R., and they didn't live very well there, nor was their economy very good.

Your not a victim of the oil companies, none of us are. If the environmentalists, and their supporters in congress, hadn't resticted our ability to bring our own oil to the markets, we never would have had this latest run-up in prices. Put the blame where it belongs, and don't fall for the victimhood argument. They are trying to get you hooked into the class envy argument and keep you from seeing the truth and doing something about it.

There always have been and always will be richer and not so rich. And people move from one to the other, poor people get rich and rich people lose it all. Without the reward and incentive of massing wealth, there is no reason for people to create new things that make our lives better, like my truck that has gone 300,000 miles with not one repair needed, like these computers you and I are using, advances in medicine, and so many other things would we rather not live without.

Best to you,

Brian

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on ... [Read Article]
