Harvard, Yale, Business schools, MBA's, colleges, universities, what's it take?
Anybody been to the gas station this weekend? This is one of those times when politicians having drivers probably isn't the best thing. If you had to pump your own gas you might feel our pain!
We can't take this. When money goes in to the gas tank, it can't go anywhere else. It can't go to summer vacations, it can't go to paying down the credit card, it can't go into investments or savings. Nope, it just goes into the tank and out to either the government through massive taxation on our gasoline, or it goes overseas to foreign oil companies!
Can higher gas prices motivate workers to work more cause they need the money? Well, Iguess that's one way to look at it.
Look, either you really are trying to destroy the United States, or you just are dug in so deep into mythical environmentalism that you just can't change. But either way, we need relief...long term, permanent relief. How can you expect people to make business investments when they don't know what health insurance payments are going to do, and when they have no idea how much gasoline is going to cost?
Republicans....wake up! It's time for a Drill Here, Drill Now policy. In the Gulf, in Alaska, and in mainland America! And, its also time to build refineries!
This doesn't take a graduate degree from the Ivy League. This doesn't take an MBA. All it takes is common sense, a sense of urgency, and political unity in just one Party! So let's go.
