They bitch about making new refineries which makes it more expensive.

They stopped the drilling in the wasteland in Alaska by propagating that it was a "beautiful area".



By hippies I mean environmentalists and insurgency posters. And damn dirty hippies.

well the guy who actually holds the power, Bush, said in 2000 that the gas prices under Clinton was an example of his failed energy policy. The gas prices now are many many times higher and it is somehow still liberal's fault?
we shouldn't tear up the planet for oil, we don't need to. where is your anger at the oil companies who are making record profits in the billions? they have power, they have influence, they are getting richer and richer off of this and actually have the power to affect real change in the prices. where's your anger? or is your anger only for people who want to preserve some nature up in Alaska?


Bush tried to change Clinton's energy policy, but congress passed legislation to prevent it.
