$400.00 a barell oil!

Coming up, if a new war to stop it doesn't occur first!
Why not? We will buy it at any price rather than limit our business profits!

Of course the new war won't be about oil!
No, of course not! Are we barbarians?

Let me see, maybe they will set off a bomb near Washington. That would do it. Wouldn't matter who set it off!

Where will we get all those bombs, planes, and soldiers this time? Why special paid soldiers of course! Civilians they be, at about $150,000 a piece, but our regulars will guard their backs---what few we have.

China will supply the bombs, Saab, the planes, and Mexico the soldier candidates.

I don't think there are any more "Huns" to call on (you know, the ones who came down from the mountains and sacked the city---of old)?

Anyway, I will not drink $18 per gallon milk, eat $15 per loaf bread, nor drive my auto at $30 per gallon gasoline.

Time to start weaning us to less and less gas (only what we produce) until the alternate energy sources are going---don't trust industry to do it--hire CCC camp workers like Roosevelt did in the 30s.

Did you say anything?
