Is Enough Ever Enough?

[daddy]

I'm 100% FOR free markets. No regulation or governmental interference. Commodities such as gasoline will reach a natural point where people are comfy buying it and companies are making good money off of it.

Everybody wants everything for less than cost in this country. Anybody wanna guess why everything is made in China or some other emerging labor market? Americans are too fWONking stupid to realize that they are causing their own job issues here (but they still want everything at or below cost).

WTF?

I don't mind a few regulations to limit some of the bi-products being pumped, dumped and released though.

Agreed.

Some rules are in place because some companies would do ANYTHING to make a buck. I understand the regulation of production and waste for the sake of public safety. Once produced legally, I don't support regulating how much it is sold for. Free markets are self leveling.

It's an unfortunate thing but almost every American believes they have a right to be able to afford everything ever made.

I'm no economist, but it seems like the price of oil is artificially higher than it should be. The fact that *they* can cut the supply is the problem I was referring to. If *they* can cut the supply to raise the price, I'd like somebody else to be able to increase the supply

Supply is not an issue right now though yet prices are still high.

It's easy to blame OPEC (read: people not like us) but the truth is the oil companies have no desire to lower prices because people keep buying their product and they keep getting filthy rich from it. The manipulation of gas prices in this country is more from internal sources than external.

I agree with you, but I am having trouble illustrating my point. I was trying to say if we don't like the high gas prices, we should do something about it. Like increase domestic production. You know, something we can control.

And I don't mean "we" as the US government.

Probably in the garage. Doesn't make sense to park in in the street, does it?

We need to grow more corn for ethanol production...
