The only thing driving up oil costs is our slumping dollar. For a lot of other people in the world the price isn't really rising. It is a currency exchange issue. All oil is traded in US dollars. We feel comforted in knowing that we play such a central role but we don't want to deal with consequences when our over inflated dollar drops in relative value. As is clear to anyone that would read this blog, we need to solve our problems here by letting OUR market run as a free market. Welfare and corporate bailouts are at BEST a band aid on an open wound. In the end it makes the lenders nervous and market tightens. This time around it was the lenders that needed a little tightening.FAICA Soldierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11778942217834406468noreply@blogger.com
