I intend to make this blog Politically Incorrect; I will say
what I feel, when I want, and how I want. Don't like it? Go to California and cry me a
river and flood the liberal bastards out into the Pacific.
My first rant will be about osama's new economic stimulus idea. Well I
really wouldn't call it a idea more like a lie to the American people,
misdirect voters on positions you will never do, and American's will never
allow. Tax the oil companies "windfall profits tax" on what? There
lousy 8% profit margin? Then give us checks for $1000? Yeah like they won’t
raise prices to offset this? Oh you wouldn’t know anything about that you only
been a Senator for what 2 years? Never ran a company, a lemonade stand, nor a
city, or state.
How about we tax Coke? Why does a 20oz soda cost more then a 2 liter (64oz)?
Why not tax Coke on there profit margin on 31%? Because you see record profits
being made by an industry everyone depends on, you think there screwing us?
They are raising the price of oil? They make the same amount of money if gas
was $1.00 per gallon. Oil profits margins are the same now as they were 30
years ago. Hmmm what has changed? Oh maybe because dependence has increased. In
1960 65% of American families had a car, 2007 98% of American families have not
1 car, but 2 cars. We drive twice as far to work, twice as far to the
store and wait twice as long in traffic. The need of oil is skyrocketing
like Congress's approval ratings. The oil companies are doing there job
supplying greedy American's with a product, that were addicted to like porn and
Miley Cyrus amazing singing. /sarcasm.
I don't believe there is an immediate fix to the high gas prices, but there is
mid term and long term solutions. Currently I believe we should be drilling
in United States
for oil. Technology has changed in the
last 30 years the chances of oil spills and miss-haps have gone down like an
old man off Viagra. There should be
regulations making sure oil companies are doing what they can to protect the
waters and surrounding area’s from accidents.
This will not come quick it takes time to drill and refine oil (that’s
another subject for a later date) and congress to make this happen. Once supply
is up depend is down, so will gas prices from speculators. (which will be another
subject someday)
The long term solutions as everyone knows is not oil, Wind,
water, solar, nuclear power and whatever else we come with is the answer for
our long term solution to energy crisis.
More power plants need to be built, moving away from coal
and oil power plants to more manageable solutions. T. Boone Pickens has an idea and it’s a
start we need ideas. Turn those ideas into plans and execute like the Patriots
in last years Super Bowl. osama doesn’t
have a plan or an idea to get us out of this. He just has ideas on how to make
things worst for the American People.
