Gas Prices

I wish fuel prices were higher(not necessarily by higher taxes) so we could sober up from our black goo dependency and get serious about sustainable alternatives that are better for the environment and eliminate the tragic politics of war and Faustian allegiances in the Middle East which is driven by the petrodollar system.
I think Tony took my Ottoman Empire History class. Or at least he sounds like my professor.

It didn't used to be quite this bad. Until we reform the zero sum/winner take all nature of our electorate system and halt the outgrowth of executive power that has been growing over the last five or so executives, we are doomed. This for starters.
