The point is the damned government created this ridiculous market and you are having too much trouble understanding the issue.

“The point is the damned government created this ridiculous market”

That sir, is the one thing I can agree with you on.

Government is the enabler or disabler of many a free market enterprise. They control the permission slip. Free enterprise does not determine where we can drill for oil in America.

The one thing for certain is that the 10% ethanol blend in my gasoline keeps 10% of my petro dollar somewhere in America. And the other 90% of that $900 billion sucked out of the country to foreign oil producers is a huge contributor to the economic collapse.
