Should Obama get on board with the dems calling to Nationalize oil refining?

4. I'll get onboard for $00.12 a gallon!

Hell, I'd even hang a picture of Che above my desk for that price.

5. No--that's heading down a bad road, and I doubt his economic advisors

would go along with that.

6. Piecemeal nationalization is not a good idea.

If we want to go all the way and do it right, then sure, but cherry picking a few high profile industries isn't a good plan.

Not also that Venezuela's price reflects their strong domestic production, a good domestic refining capacity and a pretty hefty subsidy and price control to maintain that number.

That said, I'm tempted to fly down to Venezuela and just buy gas and drive around for a few weeks.

8. That actually sounds like fun. nt
