Oh, that’s all right, it’s just the Chinese Communists. They need the oil and besides, when they burn oil, they don’t cause global warming. Also, they don’t have big bad oil companies that make obscene profits.

Actually - the Chinese oil companies lose money! They buy oil at world prices, then refine it and sell it domestically at low prices (controlled by the Gov’t, of course). That’s why in some cities, drivers now wait 5 hours to fill up.

So, the CHinese Gov’t encourages oil usage (and carbon output) by artificially keeping prices low, and then feeds back subsidies to its money-losing oil companies

Socialism in action!!

Nobody causes global warming because global warming is a hoax.

U.S. oil companies make 10% profit on sales which is not obscene. And if they were obscene profits why shouldn’t they be allowed to keep those profits since they earned them and they can better put that money to use than the “poor” that the Democrats and McCain want to give those profits too?

Socialism doesn’t work. Capitalism does. You let corporations like Exxon , Intel, Dell etc. keep their profits and they’ll advance technology and create wealth , jobs and opportunity.

If the Republicans had any sense (and it sounds like at least a few of them are starting to wake up from a long, long stupor-slumber), they'd publicly ram this issue so far down the Democrats throats there'd be a Republican LANDSLIDE in November.
