It's time to start finding renewable energy sources. Not bitch about gas prices.
I agree we should be working on renewable energy, but the side of the free market being squeezed for the U.S. is the supply side. If the Obama Admin would allow the development of our existing supplies in Alaska, offshore, etc. we could keep our prices reasonable, while at the same time squeezing the economies of folks who we aren't getting Christmas cards from (Venezula, Middle East, etc.). But the Obama Admin and congressional Dems wants higher gas prices to force more "alternative energy" and "public transportation" projects which are as of right now, not cost efective.
