Today's comedy: WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. economy will need months to recover from a growth slowdown caused by a home mortgage crisis, turmoil in financial markets and high energy prices, Treasure Secretary Henry Paulson said on Sunday. Twelve months in a year, right? Actually, it's a tossup whether the US economy will ever recover. If one has not noticed, the USD is no longer the world reserve currency.
The national debt ...( 4 months ago by HowdyCallmeDaddy)
The national debt is now at $9.5 trillion dollars. What is $9,500,000,000,000.00 divided by 300 million people? That means that every man, woman, child, infant, grandma, little sis, even the family dog, owes approximately $31,666.66 dollars. Did you know that you owe China $31,666.66 Dollars? The government spends money. The Gov. Does not have any money they are spending our money and our children's money. We need less government not more! Socialist go Libertarian help your selves.

People wonder why gas cost so much. Next time you go to the pump imagine this number $9,500,000,000,000.00 Then imagine this one $31,666.66 Thats how much you owe! Then think about the Federal Reserve (private bank) printing this much money $1,000,000,000.00 EVERY DAY/ EVERY WEEK OUT OF THIN AIR! TODAY BUSH JUST SIGNED $3,900,000,000.00 for the "housing crisis". AMERICA DOES NOT HAVE $3,900,000,000.00 Dollars. So the Federal Reserve (private bank) will print $3,900,000,000.00 out of thin air

If the oil companies want to drill on our shores what better time would it be than now to strike a fixed price for them utilizing the countries natural resources. We fix a price and they are guaranteed a fixed profit. Obviously nobody owns offshore property other than the public at large.

Keep your ear to the ground, this is what is happening already. NATO governments have been putting things in motion since the millennium to reduce our dependency on foreign oil. The high price of oil (which atm has nothing to do with supply and demand) will be it's own undoing ;)
Not a Liberal, just ...( 4 months ago by jebustheone)
Not a Liberal, just clearly a socialist. I don't like to be rude but the only reason the US is the "best" (depending on viewpoint. (I like it) and most economically powerful country because of its previously staunch support of libertarianism and capitalism. Socialism gets you nowhere, and creates a slave out of you. Quite literally.

Fixed prices on a ...( 3 months ago by connslvr)
Fixed prices on a nations resources in "international waters" could be a fun thing. Consider this: drilling offshore would mean we stake a claim 5 miles across the Gulf of Mexico from the Venezuelans. Oh, we better charge them a fixed price too because that's OUR country's resources because our public at large owns it. How far do our borders go into the water? Another aspect would be that a "fixed price" would mean fixed profit. Fixed profits that are too low mean "pursue other investments"
How about a fixed ...( 3 months ago by WinkenBlinkenAndNod)
How about a fixed profit above fair operating expenses ? Obviously at some point energy will become a military vulnerability and something will have to be done about it regardless. I don't even really care about the oil prices themselves, I don't use that much to make me piss about it.
The borders I ...( 3 months ago by WinkenBlinkenAndNod)
The borders I believe are five to ten miles out to sea. It has already been established, anybody invading that space better have a good excuse, so it is natural to assume that we can drill there.
I'm with you on how ...( 3 months ago by connslvr)
I'm with you on how much I care about prices. My bicycle gets me through town faster anyway. Can we say obesity problem solved too? I also agree that it's a military vulnerability to have a shortage of oil for a mechanized military. I think T. Boone Pickens may have the best plan when said in a blanket statement of "if we can do it, why are we talking about it instead of doing it?" I don't think oil is our future, but why can't we tide ourselves over until we find something?
The point at which ...( 3 months ago by connslvr)
The point at which I disagree is whether there is a "fair expenses" clause. I think the free market will fix itself. Supply and demand curves are too complex for me to even think about but with the supply coming in and NEW TECHNOLOGY (why are we afraid of what made this country what it is?) the prices will fall and along with those falling prices we'll find economic prosperity due to the jobs create, just keep the gov't out except for tax bonuses to companies creating these jobs and products.
Why not ?, the myth ...( 3 months ago by WinkenBlinkenAndNod)
Why not ?, the myth perpetuated by the elite is that anything belonging to the public domain is socialist. Clearly there are things that belong to us as a nation. I think that the oil underneath our countries dirt and it's bordering waters are not the property of only those wealthy enough to petition the government to give it to them.
Too last time I ...( 3 months ago by WinkenBlinkenAndNod)
Too last time I checked Venezuela was not having a problem with high gas prices. Before Hugo there were some problems, I think he rightfully asserted that the oil in Venezuala belonged to them and not multi-nationals. The point at which I disagree is that there is a free market system in the United States. Almost everything is more geared towards gaming the markets than freeing them.
I can't disagree ...( 3 months ago by connslvr)
I can't disagree that there isn't a free market system in the US. The government has its nose into everything, and I disagree with it. I think there should be something in place to protect the land owners when there's drilling, but if the oil companies can buy the land they deserve to drill freely within the boundaries that are on the surface. Who says that my pasture land is only what's on the surface? The nutrients and rocks in the soil are mine too. Why is oil different?
As for Venezuelan ...( 3 months ago by connslvr)
As for Venezuelan oil prices...I don't know where the statement came from, but when did oil prices justify a government system? Some things belong to the public, but oil and gas aren't on the list until the money is exchanged. What's under the land belongs to he or she who owns the land. If they want to drill they should be allowed to and if they don't, they shouldn't be forced to by a government agency that "owns the oil under the land" that a person owns. Offshore is a bit more complicated.

Using new information obtained from studies of old Soviet files in Moscow and now the famous Vanona Intercepts -- FBI recordings of Soviet embassy communications between 1944-48 -- the record is showing that McCarthy was essentially right. He had many weaknesses, but almost every case he charged has now been proven correct. Whether it was stealing atomic secrets or influencing U.S. foreign policy, communist victories in the 1940s were fed by an incredibly vast spy and influence network.
