I would like all of you to think about this.
If we do nothing? we are at their mercy for $5 per gallon and more real soon.
I know none of us want or need that
do your wages equal to that? NO

The US government needs oil prices to stay high. To pay for the war. And give more tax cuts to rich people.
The more money America's "friends' in the middle east get for their oil, the more money they can lend to the United States and bail them out of whatever trouble they're in.
