With oil heading towards $100 a barrel, what are your ideas for solutions to counteract this threat to our prosperity.

Drill EVERYWHERE there is a known reserve of oil. Offshore, onshore, on the beach, in Alaska parks. We cannot wait.

How about price controls and windfall profit taxes? That will solve the problem.


No reason to be facetious, but what the hey you do not have any solutions to offer.

Coal gasification. Convert our coal into needed petroleum products.

Use the oil shale rocks out west.

Drill more oil and gas well in the US.

Build more oil refineries.

Build nuclear power plants.

Invade Mexico, reorganize their gov’t, take over their oil and build refineries and pump it up to Arizona NOW!

Who’s got a copy of that map of the Middle East where all of the nations have been renamed “New Texas”?

1. Invade Mexico. Yeah, that's the ticket

2. What's frightening is that all of those "solutions" will be entertained

by our leaders and the population at large once things start getting really unpleasant.

Because no one will want to accept that we can't sustain the "globalized" economy for much longer.

3. They think like little kids.

If you gave them six sandwiches to last two days, they would eat all six sandwiches right away and go hungry a day and a half.

They are gluttonous, selfish little pricks who will be the first to die when times get tough.

4. We've gotta drill for hydrogen, the sooner the better n/t

5. No one said

"Start drilling immediately in the park by my house."

I wonder why that is?

6. I didn't even need the nitrous to laugh my ass off

although it would have made it much more enjoyable to:rofl:

I don't know how you can go there, it's a tough job and somebodies gotta do it. It might as well be you, SoCalDem.
Me not so much, they make me want to :puke:

Thx for being such a brave:patriot: Now go take a shower

7. i go there every day. They post the most ridiculous pictures of this crew

and then swoon over them like 13 yr old girls.. I bring them here and we bust a gut over those same pics :)

8. Boycott Citgo?

I guess they are paying attention to who is sponsoring Fauxsnooze Sunday.:banghead:
