Clinton now suggests taxing oil companies to make up for the money lost to her proposed holiday gas tax.

Oh, of course -- great idea! And the oil companies will just eat the increase in their taxes . . . /s

Am I missing something here -- or is she???

May all of the Democratic rainbow coalition be of the following mind throughout the rest of their primary and then onto their convention floor.

"To the last, I will grapple with thee. From hell's heart, I stab at thee. For hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee!"

Canada is the largest single exporter of oil to the U.S. & we have the world's second largest reserves. Despite that — our gas prices are 30% higher than those in the U.S. We also have a lot more miles of road per person — so it does cost proportionally more to maintain our highway system.

The U.S. is the world's largest importer of oil — it would make more sense to increase pump prices, to reduce demand. Lower demand in the U.S. would lower world prices — the combination of lower prices for crude, and less demand would mean fewer boat-loads of money leaving the U.S. to pay for oil.

It's nice to be on the receiving end of part of that greenback pipeline — but, for the longterm, I would rather see the U.S. economy healthy and growing; plus, I'd rather not see so much money going into the war chests of most of the other oil-exporting nations.
