So, gas prices are way up. Oil company profits are up. Oil companies take advantage of deductions that our government has determined will change their behavior.
So what does Obama propose??? Increase oil company taxes by removing the deductions. Now guess what happens when you increase taxes on oil companies????????
You guessed it. They INCREASE gas prices to cover the increased taxes.
Our fearless leader thinks we are dumb... and maybe we are, but not so dumb to believe his political rhetoric.
Raising taxes on oil companies will increase, not decrease, prices at the pump.

He's just a typical social democrat. He thinks tax increases stimulate the economy.

Yes- he is dumber than dirt.
Not much for choices in the last election, but in 2012 I think that most people would select any mammal over Obama. Are there any provisions in the Constitution that the president must be human, or only a citizen?

He's NOT stupid. There is plan, and it requires high energy prices to pull off. Obama wanted to bring change, remember.
The Republican solution, bow-down deeply to the corporations and allow them to hold America hostage and dictate government policy.
Great Plan!
Better to bow down to corporations, from whom all blessings flow than to bow down to some foreign head of state who will hold America hostage and dictate policy.
Oh come on people! Isn't it obvious the Man is trying to force us out of our resource-hungry middle class lifestyle? We wouldn't do it willingly, so now they will force us out by making that kind of lifestyle too expensive to pull off anymore.
Corporations don't pay taxes. PEOPLE pay taxes. That is the way it should be.
