This should have been thought of 30 years ago

We yes we the working poor and disabled of this country are hungry now. All the Dems and people like you think about is how comfy you will be when you retire 15,20,30 years from now.

If the government had opened our oil fields and funded research for alternate energy. We wouldn't have the mess we have now.

The fields need to be opened now to shock the world into fair prices. But at the same time the search for alternate fuels and real mass transportation systems must be funded. We can prevent a world resession right now and one 30 yrs from now. We all know Jimmy Carter sucked worse than Bush when it came to funding future energy research.

But no matter we must be able to buy fuel to go buy food now, and I can't aford ether let alone both.
