You could have just as easily said gasoline.

All of these Libs think that gasoline has always been there and will always be available.

But they blame the Big Oil companies for making a profit, they are outraged when there is an oil spill, they never give it a second thought (probably not even a first thought) that there has not been a new oil refinery built in the US for over thirty years and that many refineries that exist then no longer do. Yet they are disgusted that gasoline prices have risen.

Libs are always ready to put taxes and regulations on anything and everything with never a thought to what it will cost or if once these taxes and regulations are in place will these things be affordable or even exist.

As John Marshall said “The power to tax is the power to destroy.” The Left may just tax and regulate energy beyond the point that it is unaffordable.

Sometimes I think that may be their ultimate goal. If we commoners can’t afford to drive cars or power our TVs and computers we will be all that more controllable.

Hardly. They are constantly preaching the "Peak Oil" scenario.
