Mad as Hell

The Chinese, Mexicans, and Russians are drilling near our own coastlines! And yet, we serve the master of Oil Fascism in the US. That’s right my friends. God has blessed America with great natural resources. From oil reserves to gas to coal, the US has enough energy capability for the next 100 years+. In addition, we have great American ingenuity that can advance Biofuel energy for our future needs. America also has a great Nuclear energy program with successful energy centers across America. But do we drill, build new refineries or plants? No, instead we bow down to eco-liberalism and faulty science.

And yet what is our liberal-led congress doing in response? They are looking to increase personal, business and consumption taxes. And it’s not just the Federal Government, but state and local governments as well.

Let good old fashion America business ingenuity provide for us. Profitability, supply factors and demand will tell us what will work. Regulate to prevent monopolistic behaviors is the guideline that should be used, not socialism. Free market rule and supply side economics will win the day.

Until this happens, American consumers will continue to be held at gunpoint by OPEC and the sheiks. Congress needs to get the hell out of the way and let the natural market fix this issue. We need to drill now, build more refineries for gas, coal, and oil, and expand our nuclear program. At the same time, we can advance research for new methods of energy.

Our Founding Fathers responded to the Tyrant King under far less regulation and taxes.
