Well, he’s correct.
Cheap gasoline is not some inherent right.
And gasoline still isn't that expensive. We went from paying practically nothing for fuel to paying about half of what Europe pays.
The problem is that when we were paying practically nothing for fuel we CHOSE to buy huge cars and live in McMansions 50 miles from where we work.
We purchased Alaska from Russia for the natural resources. Period. So let's get about drilling some of those resources. We are the laughing stock of the world because the environmentalist (ie - the socialist left), are dragging our economy down On Purpose. Senator “Coal and Oil are making us Sick” Reid is a moron. Many of our adversaries want nothing more than our quality of living to decrease, and mock our inability to utilize our own God given natural resources.
