The best way out of this jam is to cut consumption and produce more energy, he said. Americans are now starting to change their driving behavior, he said, which may help lower oil prices.

Well we have done this for 6 straight months to no avail.

He is absolutely right. The hysteria industry that promotes global warning and the threat-of-the-moment has created a virtually psychotic state with regard to the future. People see us as about to run out of everything and are reacting accordingly.

Do you imagine the US taxpayers will be forced to bail out oil speculators should the price of oil fall—ala stupid home buyers and bankers?

Let me guess: its our fault and we need to cut back on our standard of living and our high expectations of life in America.

OPEC sells oil for $136.00 a barrel.
OPEC nations buy U.S. grain at $7.00 a bushel.
Solution: Sell grain for $136.00 a bushel.
Can’t buy it? Tough! Eat your oil!

More silly BS from politicians who simply refuse to see the facts.

The demand trend in the Oil Market is flat supply/rising demand. Until they get off their butts and do something about that, all this silly posturing about “shortage phsycology” is just so much verbal diarrhea
