Does the high price of gasoline have anything to do with ANWR? |
|
and the plans to drill in the Arctic Refuge? Does the pain of paying higher prices for gas make it more palatable for people to accept the idea of drilling in the pristine wilderness? After all, most reports say that there is a good supply so there is no logical explanation for the high prices?
Is there a conspiracy afoot between the Big Oil men in government and the oil companies that will contract to drill in the Wildlife Refuge? Is this their way of forcing it upon the people to accept the inevitability of opening up the last wilderness in America?

I don't think it matters one fuck what oilmeisters plan to do in order to manipulate the public into following the Bushco master scheme to redistribute wealth and keep the vast majority of the world's populations enslaved.
Why.. because the oil supply will still be limited and run out very soon... no matter what!

They did exactly the same thing with fuel prices when they wanted to go back to the North Slope and it of course did nothing for prices, but perhaps that is because it costs more to maintain equipment, pipeline, and for ridiculous amounts produced and shipped than any value! The total value of this stupid venture is the un-bid contracts going out to the likes of Halliburton and other republican huge corporations! The actual oil deposit doesn't hold enough to cover the highways in TX & CA with crude!

promised to China. Or whoever else will pay the exorbitant prices they will charge for it in what, 10 years from now? The U.S. will never see a drop.

But think of the jobs we'll create in Alaska when we do this...
Oil workers Management Security Cleanup Prostitutes Lawyers
You create all kinds of jobs when a place like this goes up. If you vote against this, you're voting against Americans getting jobs.

5. Standard Bush Criminal Empire policy |

When Poppy was trying get America pissed at Saddam Hussein in the fall of 1990 in preparation for his invasion, the gas prices kept going up and people were pissed.
It's the same type of psyop here. That's how Junior got the SUV driving Freepazoids on board for Stupid Iraq Invasion II. Only the gas prices didn't come down, they kept going up. Well what's the problem then?
Well it's gotta be those damn leftist librul hippies and that "barren useless tundra with all that oil under it" that they're defending in Alaska.
And sure enough, as soon as construction begins on the ANWR manifestation of Satan, the gas prices will start falling. Even though a drop of oil won't be seen from that site for another 10 years.
Why is that? Because this shit has nothing to do with supply and demand, and hasn't for a long time. If oil was in short supply, the oil companies wouldn't be reporting record profits every quarter. Problem is that you have an industry controlled by 3 or 4 huge companies who are KNOWN price-fixers, and they are very closely tied to this Fraudministration. Shit, can you think of any other Secretary of State who had an oil tanker named after them?
