We Choose To Have An Energy Shortage
I believe that it is obvious to the most causal observer that our local, state, and national laws and policies have dictated that this country shall import oil. For example, we don't let any oil company drill off shore in such places as Florida but China is drilling 90 miles off Florida, in Cuban waters. We don't want the oil; we choose to let the Chinese have it.
We choose not to have nuclear power plants.
We choose to have a clean environment so no new refineries have been built in this country in the last 20 years.
We choose not to have a gasoline standard for all 50 states so therefore we have 50 blends of gasoline that produce shortages in local markets.
We choose to have the FED rein in inflationary expectations by its monetary policies. It is called allocation of credit and money.
We choose to have loss of jobs in this country as a trade off for wage inflation.
We choose to have a trade deficit.
We choose to have terrorism; we buy oil from known states that sponsor terrorist.
We choose to have illegal aliens; we don't want to cause a labor shortage.
Get it? We choose these things, they just don't happen without us.
