Sophomoric response and the typical "blame game" anti-oil (and by extension, anti-American-Conservative) "activists" lob out there. Noone FORCES you to buy gasoline. Regulating oil prices in the united states because you dont want to pay 3 bucks at the tank (or 10 bucks american in the UK) is bullshit and anti-capatalism and would only HURT consumners in the long run. Whats next, regulating the price of a pair of sneakers? Of internet access? How about we start regulating the price of goods in YOUR service industry - see how long you keep your job then.

The oil companies arent the problem. Consumners are.

Gas is a necessity in many North American lives. They can't just not buy gas.
