Who would be rich from HIGHER foreign prices? Stockholders/investors etc.
Who continously prevents US atomic plants/domestic oil exploration/extraction? Dims.
Yet it must be Bush's fault. Ff--150, you need to discover oil on your spread ;o)
Certainly. However, maestro has nailed it that the British are more or less controlling these high prices through refining--there's a piece missing to this puzzle, linked to BP??????
"Who would be rich from HIGHER foreign prices? Stockholders/investors etc."
That's a big 10-4, goodbuddy. It ain't goin' down short term.
"Who continously prevents US atomic plants/domestic oil exploration/extraction? Dims."
Uh-oh! 4CJ is catching on :-)

Tuesday, Silverwoman1 and me will be sleeping on the largest natural gas pocket in the world [hope it doesn't leak=-(]. Have a nice view with a small ranch a mile off and three gas wells, with pipelines big enought to walk through bent over.
It is Bush's fault--he's 50 miles away.
In 1976, Bill Gates dropped out of Harvard to devote full attention to his start-up venture. Bill Gates and Paul Allen signed a partnership agreement in 1977 and by year end Microsoft had nine employees in its Albuquerque office. Microsoft began 1981 with 60 employees, all younger than age 40. The partnership also graduated to a privately held corporation during 1981. Microsoft did not go public until 1986, eleven years after formation. By 1998, Microsoft had revenues of $14+ billion and 27,000+ employees. Bill Gates still owns 18.50% of the stock, with a market value in excess of $75 billion.

The tale of how Bill Gates co-founded Microsoft in Albuquerque in 1975 but had to move home to Seattle in 1979 when he could not get a bank loan to pay legal fees is sometimes viewed as the state's greatest missed opportunity, sometimes as a narrow escape.
The REAL richest people in the world are probably smart enough and careful enough to keep off lists like "The 10 Richest People in the World..."
Obviously refinement is the chokehold (and the source of the 'pucker' factor), absent real competition.
Once you drill I can say I knew you when! We've got enough natural gas and coal to fuel the country for centuries.
if that is true tell me about the builderburger family where do they hit on your list?
Welcome to FR?
Builderburgers you say.
Some of the title should include "Some of the Top Ten Hardest Workers In The World."
