This is all for show. Bush and virtually every POS politician could care less.
You are correct my friend. Our elected politicians and family, many of whom are stock holders in oil companies, love the big dividend checks, love the increased value of the stock, love the extra tax revenue (no conflict in owning stock in an industry they regulate, nah)....As well, the oil companies are very happy not to drill more, build more refineries...why not, profits keep going up...The Saudis and the rest of the oil producers laugh all the way to the bank as they live the high life....Hey, who cares if the little guy is screwed at the pump...Our elected officials and their families are happy and the oil companies and their stock holders are happy, the Saudis and their friends are happy...whats not to like?
LOL! Why should they? We buy their gas. Blackbird.
