The main problem I have is government giving money to private industry, who is already raking in billions. Sometimes incentive bailouts are needed but it's neither conservative or capitalistic to give handouts where none is needed. If incentive bailouts are used, it should be in loans not handouts. The oil and gas giants are laughing all the way to the bank. They didn't have to do anything and they got profit. Reminds me of current welfare, do nothing, collect something.

Yes. This bears repeating. The oil industry is draining our expanding economy. It is going to cause a recession. The pubs will get blamed for that recession.

Yes, it is bad. Too much of our money is being dealt out to people who really don't need it or deserve it -- it makes no difference whether its big oil that makes big political contributions, or illegal Mexicans and the Latino community that make big political contributions...they get our tax dollars very much against our will. This adminstration, and the Congress, is BIG on subsidizing industry and business with our tax dollars...it is a matter of history.
