In the early 70's we was pumping nearly 10 million barrels a day....we are currently pumping less than 6 million per day...

YES, I do believe they have.......I cannot think of a better reason as to why we are in the shape we are it.....other than those who want to continue the path we are going down...where common sense no longer means squat.  Let's just forget about letting the private sector doing what they are capable of and let Uncle Sam make ALL decisions that are NOT in the best interests of our economy or well-being.

Like collapsing the world economy with junk mortgage derivatives?
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

On the mend, thanks!  After six days of going in for IV antibiotics and having the wounds repacked, I'm now on oral antibiotics and finally letting everything scab over and heal!

a STRONG economy is not what most economist are calling it....

with our "so-called" unemployement rate over 8%, and in acutallity we have 28 million who are unemployed or underemployed...we have a REAL unemployment rate of 17%.......and a debt over $15 TRILLION....gas prices near $4 a gallon....and Bernanke getting ready to PUMP more money...

even the most optimistic economist would say we are steady, but not overly optimistic....and many fear a return to a recession.

so STRONG economy is NOT really accurate.
