Don't worry about commodities. They will be priced accordingly to supply and demand, and adjustments will be made for their price fluctuations in the market, up or down.

I know. But in this case Jeb is nixing Mexican Gulf drilling suppressing supply out of pure PC-idediety. Which means we must pay more (hard earned) money to a bunch of Muslims who will attack us or much more insidiously, subvert us by buying our own politicians.

Yes, he is, and I don't agree with that. However, those wells might well become a financial liability in the next price war and go bankrupt, so that is not a long term solution. We can't compete with middle east oil coming out of the ground (literally blowing out of the ground, no pump needed) at less then a buck a barrel.

You want to protect yourself from Muslims? It's easy. We arm ourselves to the teeth. We might need an Amendment to the Constitution to reinforce the 2nd Amendment, since so many mistake the intent of that Amendment.

Would they attempt to board our planes knowing that citizens are armed? No. Will they be able to take over a school or any other facility that is armed? No.

They want to commit a suicide bombing, well, that's hard to stop. But let's not be unarmed sheep unable to blow their asses away as the founding fathers intended.

Truly, the 2nd Amendment is the red headed step child of all the Amendments when it comes to enforcing it.

Regulation? Fine. Prohibition? Utter stupidity.

I do agree with you, and I think I missed your original point. Someone wants to take a chance and drill in the Gulf, let them do it.

But if the Arabs cut their balls off in a price war, don't expect me to feel sorry for them or bail them out.

The Arabs will play ball with us. They have no choice unless they have dreams of commiting financial suicide.

Push come to shove, we would find the energy without them.
