"there is an even greater long-term risk to the global economy from the lower oil prices of today because of the lack of investments being made in non-OPEC production during the downturn. Oil companies around the world are deferring and canceling expensive long-term oil projects that are needed to meet future demand. These projects will be needed because the depletion of oil reservoirs means that global oil production declines at a 4% rate per year, while demand has been increasing by roughly 1% per year because of economic and population growth."

When it's high the President is not responsible. When it's low the President is responsible.

Welcome to the land of sheep.

Yay for ruining the Canadian and United States economy by allowing Saudi Arabia to bankrupt a portion of our population!

Whoo hoo the Sauds are going to keep prices low when their competitors are 'taken care' of.

And I thank my lucky stars to be livin' here today. Cause this flag still stands for Freedom. And the gas prices are ok. HeyyyyyYYYYY!

And I'm proud to be a dumb pleb. Where at least I know gas is cheap. And I won't forget the men who lost their jobs....who gave that price to me.

And I'll proudly stand up next to you and celebrate here today. Cause there ain't no doubt I love this land! God bless more middle class jobs going awayyyyyY!!!!

Look at who rules you. You're shilling for those guys, idiot.

just let me know when the grocery and home supplies prices start going down in line with the gasoline prices, along with airfares, postal charges, and every other consumer product.......dangle, dangle, dangle like f$#king puppets :rolleyes:

The Bush family begs to differ..

So....is it news that rich folks run the world and drop the rest of us a crumb once in awhile? It is the blood of the common person that provides entertainment for the rich...I see a new TV show is about rich folks who gamble on crime and use a guy who lost his wife as their pawn...how very true to the real world.

Every administration since Jimmy Cater has been in bed with the Saudis. Big Run's point is that he has a huge hard on for the Bush family and tries to shoe horn it into every thread regardless of topic.

Unless of course his point is that Obama isn't. Which would explain this thread, and why I lose IQ points and feel a little dumber every time I read something he posts.

It boggles my mind how much praise or blame is garnered by the President for things that he has so little control of.
Thing is....so many companies are holding onto cash rather than looking into capital investments, r and d....oil and gas is one of the few industries doing so. Yes, its nice to see lower prices, but what are the long term consequences? Obviously, the prices aren't falling on other items that are quick to raise prices when transportation costs go up.

FTFY...and you are correct, I have a very huge hard on for G Dumya Bush which is well founded, i.e.invading a sovereign country..but not his daddy, a WWII hero :tro:

And I shoe horned it in as a reply to this off topic post..

And if gas prices were $4/gal who's fault would it be:zz:

Mr. Market Forces? It certainly wouldn't be POTUS fault.

Sheep led to slaughter ........ the "followers" of left ;)

the only thing "broken" is the mindset of the SHEEP ;)

Ror...the broken records points out a broken record

did you know name calling is the number one 'don't' on the list of debating rules?

at any rate, what do you think about the gas prices, etc?

and i don't get why...we get less than 10% of our oil from them.

that whole area is just nuts. we sell arms to folks and then they fire them at each other.
honestly, i think our main goal is to keep all the fighting over there in that region. we don't want them to end it either, just keep it localized and unstable.

The 'why' is making the rounds in the international media.

You have 3 guesses.

No name calling from me ........ just stating my view! :D

Still 2.50ish here cuz of the bs taxes

$1.63/gal here...cheap gas joint is $1.60:tro:

$2.15 still here..highest gas taxes in the country

Is anyone here against cheap gas?? Not me. I love it. Cheaper the better. :$:

Dropped another nickel today..$1.58:tro:

actually just had someone leave me office who isn't happy about it. he and his whole crew were laid off from a rig a couple months back due to the lower prices. so yes, price wise it's great....for their employees, not so much.

True. That makes sense. For most people not in the oil industry, I would think the recent discount is a good thing.

Exactly this. Big Oil is scooping up the smaller operations left and right as they shutter due to the inability to stay afloat due to the depressed prices they are getting for their oil. The deeper pockets are taking a small hit in comparison, but will benefit exponentially once the pendulum swings back the other way.

Well I guess saving a few cents on gas is great as our 401K's crater.

Another thing that sucks....prices won't come down due to cheaper shipping. But then gas will go up again, and the high gas is blamed for price increases!

I think you're right, but how is this different from the consolidation and "merger mania" seen in other industries from time to time?

it's really not, which is why they shouldn't be allowed.
we had banks too big to fail, so we want more industries like that? less competition? monopolies? didn't they learn anything from standard oil?

Another casualty

Saw that about aja...not surprised. I didn't figure it would do well.

Stocks fall sharply again on energy concerns; Dow off 364 points

Why am I not shocked you go through life with Blinkers On... Save a couple hundred bucks a year on gas and Lose a couple hundred K a year on your 401-K as we hit our next financial crisis when companies can not service their debt due to..... Wait for it.... Low oil prices... Guess who will be on the hook for covering those bad debts..... Wait for it...... Me and You.... Boy what a country. I lose when I lose and lose more when I win.....

correct!

Also, the Saudi's are in overproduction mode. They want cheap oil to drive out the frackers and natural gas industry. Then we will be beholding to them when the prices go to 5.00/gallon.

Joey may get wood
