Let me get this straight:

Low crude oil prices = low gas prices. This should be a good thing for the US, yes? :up:

Low crude oil prices = hard times for oil producing countries, some of which don't like the US. I should be worried about this? :dunno:

Let the free market run its course.

How about they start paying taxes like the rest of us? This is my problem how?

Yes, low energy prices are bad. Why conserve? Why develop efficient engines? Why develop alternative energy sources? If it doesn't hit us in the pocketbook now we will be right back where we were pretty soon.

I slightly agree.

Since jobs are being downsized at an alarming rate, many will have to cut in order to survive. I know im not thinking about driving like an animal because of low fuel prices. I ALWAYS DROVE LIKE AN ANIMAL LOL:beer:
