What Comes With Cap And Trade? -
 - Joel Hendon (16,285)     
Joel Hendon   
For those who think Cap and Trade means swapping baseball head gear, listen up. The entire Cap and Trade subject is that of reducing emissions into the atmosphere, mainly of CO2, but will include pollutants also. CO2 is the fall guy, or scape goat for Al Gore and the U.N. goal of securing a world... ( added 10 days 6 hours ago.) |
Condoleezza + Gaddafi = More Oil! -
Roschelle Nelson (505)  
Roschelle Nelson
Our beloved Condoleezza Rice is in Tripoli...no...that's not a typo. She's in Libya on a "diplomatic" visit to meet and talk with Moammar Gaddafi today to hail the West's reconciliation with the one-time pariah state, becoming the first US Secretary of State to visit in half a century. Hopefully... ( added 1 year 63 days ago.) |
To Drill Or Not To Drill? Why The Ban Should Be Lifted -
Abigail Richards (10,363) 
Abigail Richards
We continue to hear the debate of drilling in the Arctic. The United States has a 27-year old ban on drilling in the coastal waters off Alaska.
Environmental groups continue to argue that drilling would be too detrimental to the environment. I have set with awe and wonder as this debate... ( added 1 year 107 days ago.) |

Use Freedom to Protest or Use it to Attest? Oil Tycoon, T. Boone Pickens -
- Jean Purcell (1,945)  
Jean Purcell
"Oilman T. Boone Pickens says the present
foreign-oil-dependency of the U. S. is something we can't drill our way out
of.'"
That is the headline, and I look forward to the next ad by
this oil leader. Pickens intends to present his views through TV ads. The first is already viewable. I... ( added 1 year 122 days ago.) |
The Pentagon's Battle Plan Is To Go Green -
James Smith (698)
The vote was 324-84 as the United States House of Representatives recently approved legislation allowing the Justice Department to sue members of OPEC . The House bill blames OPEC for limiting oil supplies and working together to set crude prices. In effect, it says that gas and oil prices in... ( added 1 year 145 days ago.) |
Why Another Economic Bubble In Oil? -
Missing Link (766) 
Missing Link
My grandmother was a conspiracy theorist. Nanny, as we called her, saw communists behind every bush. I don't know if being a conspiracy theorist is genetic or psychological but I have a touch of it myself. If a definition of conspiracy theory is the tendency to think about how specific events fit...

A Large Price to Pay for a Gallon of Gasoline -
- Jennifer Cuddy (989)  
Jennifer Cuddy
As we all painfully know, gasoline prices have soared from approximately $1.50 a gallon to as high as $4.65 a gallon since the Bush administration came into office. Many believe that this sudden rise in the price gouging of oil is due to the war in Iraq - a sort of sanction placed upon us for our... ( added 1 year 181 days ago.) |
The Gasoline and Heating Fuel Quagmire -
Sandra E. Graham (7,883)  
Sandra E. Graham
Well, even President Obama is telling us there is a slight upturn in the economic slump. I have noticed that the stock market has turned up just a bit-at least, the stock I'm watching has. So, do we dare hope that we have sunk as deep as we will go into this sludge-pit of economic problems?

America's Oil Addiction: from Standard Oil to OPEC to Bandar Bush -
Jeff Brown (9,928) 
Jeff Brown
It all began with John D. Rockefeller, owner of a small
produce commission business who saw a good thing in the refinery business.
Along with his partner at the time and two other men, he formed Clark &
Rockefeller and built an oil refinery in 1863. At this time, petroleum was used
mainly to... ( added 236 days 6 hours ago.) |
Will Home Heating For America's Poor Become Cost Prohibitive? -
Joel Hendon (16,285)
Joel Hendon
With our economy in the doldrums, plus our government warning us that it will get worse before it gets better, plus energy costs pushing the roof off, what is to be done? Frankly, they are already to that point with many and it appears to be growing worse.
We are heading into a period where... ( added 285 days 5 hours ago.) |
Do Low Gasoline Prices Provide Delusional Benefits? -
Joel Hirschhorn (2,835) 
Joel Hirschhorn
I am as happy as anyone to be able to fill up my car's gas tank without spending a small fortune. It still amazes me that the price, now well below $2 per gallon, has dropped so much over just a few months. But even as I fill my tank I find myself questioning the long term effects of what appears... ( added 339 days 5 hours ago.) |
Motives As To Why No Vote For Drilling Offshore & Anwar -
- Kii Kynzer (498)
WHY THE VOTE ON DRILLING OFFSHORE & ANWAR WAS STALLED
In past articles about drilling for oil, and the impact of extreme environmentalists, it was made clear that our problem with getting the oil in a reasonable timeline is the result of blocks by those who do not want us to drill. There are... ( added 1 year 85 days ago.) |

Will We Ever See Cheap Gas Again? -
Terry Mitchell (4,981) 
Terry Mitchell
With the way gas prices are soaring these days, many people are wondering if we'll ever see cheap gas again. I believe we most certainly will and we won't have to wait a lifetime for it either. How can I be so optimistic? Well, there are three major reasons why I can be reasonably certain that... ( added 1 year 117 days ago.) |
Does T. Boone Pickens Have A Personal Agenda? -
- Dan Bimrose (1,259) 
Dan Bimrose
Many of us have started to see T. Boone Pickens new commercial touting wind power and the use of natural gas for cars. While I was spending some time researching what it is exactly that Mr. Pickens wants to do I came across several negative comments concerning his motives for pushing to use wind...

Nancy Pelosi, Congress and High Gasoline Prices -
- Josh Greenberger (913)
(June 2008) Nancy Pelosi will probably go down in history as the
greatest enemy-from-within this country has ever had. As bad as Bush's
ratings are, the Democratic Congress' is even worse, and Nancy Pelosi
scrapes the bottom of the barrel.
Her claim of not opening more offshore drilling... ( added 1 year 123 days ago.) |
Three Points On ANWR -
- The Cultural Economist (7)
There has been much discussion - mostly acerbic, ignorant and deceptive - about drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR). Without taking sides, I would like to point out three facts everyone is missing:

Have High Oil Prices Hurt Big Oil? -
Eugene Redstone (1,532) 
Eugene Redstone
I've read with great interest this past week the antics of John Hofmeister, the president of Shell Oil Co. John has been traveling the U.S. trying to show how misunderstood Big Oil is by U.S. citizens. I was amazed as I read Johns words that the surge in oil prices over the past year have been...

Perhaps The U.S. Should Burn This Bridge -
- Dan Bimrose (1,259)
Dan Bimrose
Many years ago, I read about a concept which stated that if you are proposing a new business venture perhaps leaving your job instead of holding onto it as long as possible has its advantages. Doing this forces you to make a real effort to make your new business work since you can not readily go... ( added 1 year 119 days ago.) |
