While FreeAtlanta did not include the socialized subsidy in his or her point, the parallel point that was made is valid. OPEC countries have a lot of oil supply, and therefore they do have an advantage in keeping their own fuel costs down.
The fact that they are state-owned monopolies producing the oil was beside FreeAtlanta’s point, I think.
FreeAtlanta, feel free to correct me if I have misstated something.
Well, I do want legistlation that would block the greens from sueing once the permit is granted. And, I would like there to be only 1 permit that is guaranteed to be approved/denied within 3 to 6 months. Also, if one national standard gasoline formula instead of the dozens of regional/seasonal formulas.
