Oil the fuel of Capitalism

Oil is the fuel of Capitalism. Barak H. Obama does not want to drill for more oil. Nancy Pilosi went on vacation to sell her books rather than agreeing to allow her collegues to hear the debate about domestic drilling. Actually, it isn't the debate that she is afraid of - she is afraid that she would loose the vote to the Republicans.

Why don't the Dems want more oil. You do the math. More Oil = More Capitalism. Less Oil=Less Capitalism. Less Capitalism = more Socialism.

Hey John,I am in support of drilling. The part that I dont want to hear Americans whine about is where the oil is going after it is drilled. Make no mistake, if foreign countries are willing to pay more for American oil(ie. Alaskan Oil), it will go over seas. And why not? That is Capitalism. There is no Nationalism in oil. Real sustainable solutions need to be made and invested in now. This is what I call taking the high road. It will hurt a little now, but in the long run Americans will benefit. Investing in short lived solutions may help today. Our economy may even get a boost from oil production or even the Congressional promise of drilling. That being said, renewable sources are the real future. I think the real question is how to make renewable sources of energy profitable. I just don't see renewable sources of energy in the near future. If someone isn't getting very wealthy on it, it just wont happen.
