because none of our elected officials want to rock the boat and actually do something about it. Obama after 4 years is still complaining about the mess he was left.  It's the Republicans blamimg the Democrats and the Democrats blaming the Republicans.  It keeps going in a big circle.  These clowns can promise the moon when running for office and want your vote, but once elected they could give a rats **** about the people who put them in office.  These big corporations help get them there financially and then feel they are owed votes for helping them get elected.  Really the President no matter who they are unless he has the support of the House and Senate, he can say what he wants to do, but without their support it isn't gonna happen.  Bottom line the whole political system is corrupt.... period.   They could care less about us "little" people

something is wrong here. 10 years back the cost of a gallon was 90cents here in ga.  oil was at around 30 bucks a barrel.  now take the tax out of the gallon and each gallon cost 74cents.  now oil is 3 time what it was then  so 74c  time 3 is 2.22 per gallon   now add back the 16c tax and the cost is 2.38 per gallon.  why is the cost at the pump at 3.79-3.97 now?   something is not right  

how about we at least say we are opening up drilling here to drive the world costs down
