Bubble has burst. If this follows the same pattern as the last 3 or 4 times, we all should be happy to get fuel for 4 bucks a gallon now and OPEC will sell us all we want at that price. The oil companies can handle this amount without any investment and make more money. So nothing changes, again, but the price of oil.
Yep, I'm with you, let's start somewhere. Pass a law-drill a well, convert coal to gasoline. Anything. A single step begins the journey of a thousand miles.
