More reason to drill

OPEC production cut boosts oil prices - Yahoo! News

Opec decides to cut production to hold prices at $100 dollars a barrel.

Supply and demand??? Yes, they cut the supply to demand the price they want.

Is this what America wants? Do we want Opec deciding what Americans will pay for gas.

We desperately need to produce our own supplies and tell these people to suck off.

We can drill all we want and overload our reserve supply. Unfortunately, the WORLD market price is set by an agreed price regardless of where it was purchased. We can pump 300 million barrels a day, but if OPEC chooses to charge $100 a barrel, that's what you'll pay for the domestic oil too.
