I hope everyone gets a chance to read literature about the FairTax....its available on CD, too. Let's get rid of the abuse of our government tax program and start growing our culture again!

We have an addiction problem. The unscrupulous Speculators are getting 140 a barrel. And unfortunately you can't just boycott one supplier to knock down the price. The only ways drop the price of oil are to 1) get more oil here ( this is a temp fix, folks) and 2) Large scale investment in advanced non-fossil based power sources. We've had nearly 40 years to develope fusion power, or a hydrogen infrastucture for fuel cell vehicles. Saddly this means that the current economic problems rel…ated to the price of oil are of our own making. Look at Brazil.... no imported oil there. Lets force those turkeys in Washington to stop subsodizing a 120 billion dollar private industry and take that part of the budget to get us past our addiction. More

Nobody gets it!!!! We have PLENTY of oil here in the United States PLENTY but they say our refinerys cannot break down the oil so they send it overseas to be refined and they sell it back to us......its not the Oil Companies .....ITS OUR GOVERNMENT!! WAKE UP PEOPLE.........we are paying off our national debt through our gas tanks...please read The Non Energy Crisis by Lindsey Williams.........maybe then ya'll will understand!!!!

China is drilling 60 miles off of the Flordia coast,but we are not allowed, for thirty years we haven't been allowed to drill or build refineries thanks to the democrat extremist,Wake up America

You will never convince me the economy is "bad" when so far this year, we have seen RECORD spending on computers, big-screen TV's, and video games, just to mention a few. We spent $500 million bucks on ONE stupid video game when it debuted...A GAME?!?! Last week we spent almost a Billion dollars going to the movies. So yeah, I can see where our economy is bad...
