[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 894950, member: 17969"] YA, theres the truth.. Like I said, theres one in every bunch. The oil companies post record profits in a period when americans are suffering, and yet theres always someone who will defend those outrageous profits at our expense. Ya, Obama wants us dependent on foreign oil, thats a good one. Why not ask yourself how we got into this mess in the first place? How long has the USA known that its been sitting on the largest deposits on oil in the world? What do you think trippy, 10,20,30,40,50,60 years at best? Why if there was no Obama going back all those years was the oil never taken from the ground in this country? Who was it that deregulated the oil industry in the usa and guaranteed that we would get oil from the middle east? Who was it that said that deregulating the oil industry would increase competition and keep prices low? Oh yeah, Ronald Reagan. How did that work out for us? Why during Reagans time and Bush 1's time, did they close 50% of the refining capacity in the usa to drive up prices on a barrel of oil in the middle east? Why if we have all this wonderful oil in the ground, did REAGAN, BUSH 1 and BUSH 2 not INCREASE the domestic production capacity of the USA? If all we have to do is pump it out of the ground, why didnt the three largest oil people in office do so? Ask yourself if the oil companies who just posted profits for a three month period of 125 billion NET each, really want to pump oil out of the ground and drive the price of oil per barrel down to lets say 25 bucks? Do you really want to convince us that the oil companies have this in mind? Why not stick with the facts trippy, and talk about how under president OBAMA, our domestic production is HIGHER than its ever been since Reagan, Bush and Bush? I realize facts get in your way from time to time, as it doesnt suit your narrow view of reality, but what about it? Peace. [/QUOTE]
