Stop Oil Speculation Now

[HummerMann]

Got an Email from my airline frequent flier program and they want all frequent fliers to use this site to contact their congressmen to lower the cost of oil. Don't know if it will do much good, but I doubt if it can hurt.

Ahem, we're all Hummer owners, we speculate in oil! Don't you?!

Actually, as backwards as this is going to sound; market speculation has been shown to reduce overall prices along long time horizons.

I know, right now it sucks.

One of the good things to come of this blip is that it's shutting the mouths of the anti-domestic drilling ass holes.

Damn right! Just the talk of drilling has dropped the price! Imagine what would happen if we could get those idiots in Congress to free up ANWR and offshore drilling!

....people would be working in an oil patch called ANWR?!

Alaskan citizens would see an increase in the oil revenue dividend payment.

Alaska unemployment would decrease.
