[QUOTE=scottw;852067]c'mon Jim, everyone knows and all economists will agree that when you increase production and supply...in particular, domestic supply, so that you don't have to transport it halfway around the world....the result is always increased consumer prices because greedy executives will raise the prices anyway or gorge on the difference to line their pockets which is why we have always had the most expensive gas in the world courtesy of greedy big oil...and also why every congressional investigation into price gouging has produced..????...do I have to explain everything to you????
ZIMMY should get some credit for creativity and I love the beanie with the propeller on top...

Ok genius, how much has oil production decreased in the last 6 months to drive prices up? That's what I thought. Also, point me to the info that shows that US oil production would alter gas prices more than 5%. Can't do that either, can you?
