Sorry our refineries are doing just fine, do you see any shortage of gas at the pump? Again it's not the refineries it our dependence on foreign oil. And sending 500+ billion to foreign countries to buy that oil and all the jobs that go with it. But you liberals don't care about jobs as oil is evil, nor do you care about sending 500+ billion a yr to countries to buy their oil. And worse you don't care that these countries control our economy as they control the price of oil. But hey this is all OK with you and your liberal friend.



You did not read my post. I repeat, if we announced that we are opening up our own oil reserves such as ANWAR, offshore of our coasts, and others the price of oil would go down upon that announcement.



Of course that's a liberal answer that pushes the cost of goods higher and pushes companies offshore. Liberals just don't get it. Energy is a major cost of production and high energy cost kills an economy. Yeah a liberal idea is to tax oil heavily to kill the economy. Good one.



Obama can't lead anything he is a follower. And to your "spend on infrastructure" is nothing more than another stimulus package. And you want to tax oil heavily so that would drive a spike right in the heart of our economy. Do you not know that everyone is scared that these oil prices may take this country back into a recession and you want to tax oil heavily. Now I could say some things here, but I will hold my tongue.
OK, I get it, your divorce from reality went through a long time ago, and you haven't had any contact in years.

You haven't noticed oil companies making the largest profits that any company ever made in history, why would you, you pontificate about the economy, you don't follow it. And "largest profits in history" would only ring a bell if you had perhaps taken a course in economics or free market theory, and you are "education free" when it comes to that stuff.

Did you know, (not fair, I know you don't have a clue), that when Jimmy Carter left office, the programs in place meant that the US would never import more than 3 million barrels a day of foreign petroleum, oil imports were going down, Reagan changed all that, did you know that?
