Well, hey... it's pretty well-produced; definitely gives Michael Moore

Seems kinda inspired by this old Paul Harvey track:

I'm not sure about the one Jim posted, but I think Paul Harvey was
generally sincere in his beliefs; he was a respectable fellow even to
people who disagreed with him.

Oil in the US used for commuting has a lot more elasticity in
demand than we give it credit. The people who will be hurt
will be people who have to use a truck for service small businesses,
but hopefully, mileage deductions will continue for them.
They're doing it wrong, then. Imagine that
Natural gas is at record lows in price.
I dunno *what* happened with oil, but it'll most likely de-bubble
pretty soon. Not back to 2006 prices, but low enough.
The government really should allow some additional pipeline capacity,
since that probably caused the price spike ( best I can tell - it
all seems to have been related to storage capacities in Cushing ).

The EPA is hard at work rectifying that 'problem'.

The idea of setting truth and honesty against each other is just plain
cracked. Real honesty is rare and precious, but without it we can't
even maintain the _desire_ to know the truth.
