...All other oil producing nations subsidize oil sales to their people. That is why there was 15cent per gallon gas Iraq. In the USA, it costs oil producers 15 dollars a barrel to produce. That includes wells and processing. They then sell at 72(as of yesterday). Every time OPEC raises rates, our oil producers go aong with it for that reason. Now, what if the USA said 'Hey, you are allowed a fair profit of 75%'. Prices would drop substantially. This is no longer a talk about fair trade and profits. 398million dollar retirment packages are a sign that these companies need regulation. Even drug companies are investigated when they turn these kinda' profits. Oil is national security, so I think it needs additional regulation in the short term.
In the long term I think with 400 billion going to Iraq, we might find 20 billion for alternate fuel research.
Me? I'm seriously looking for a diesel Chevy Suburban. I am converting to biodiesel.
