    All hail Hillary!

    Cheney is only blamed because he was CEO of Halliburton at the time of the things in question. Cheney didn't personally send money to those people or instruct anyone else to pay them. Our code of business conduct will not allow that and anyone doing it gets terminated. Our CoBC parallels things defined by the govt. Code of Business Conduct - Halliburton Read those and then decide if that is how you think Halliburton operates.

    See, I like that greg is speaking his mind. I love our freedom of speach. I love my country, and I love the fact that we can have open debates about the Government, and how corrupt it is without disapearing forever. I want to keep it that way. A good old fashion debate never hurt anyone.
    But I still believe that a big change in the government needs to happen. Throw out the whole election process, no electoral colleges, no delegates. Just the people and our votes... most votes wins the election. No more Congress members with criminal records. No more lobbyiests, stiffer punishment for sex offenders. Like the death sentance for admitance, or solid proof of rape or sexual conduct with a person under 10. Life for all others. DWI- first time 90 days in jail. second time 5 years 3rd time life. Only people of a common background can run for president. No more corprate, or oil guys, or arms dealers, or anything like that. If the president issues the order to attack another country, And no proof of a direct, or indirect threat is found... that president shall be imprisoned, And stripped of all assets. If corruption is proved beyond a reason of a doubt. same punishment. If found guilty of murder... death penalty. Why isnt it like this to begin with... I dont know.

    So it worked? SUCCESS.

    Naw, just kidding... I do have my own thoughts on this and love to debate others regarding this issue, but I really don't have the time to sit down and type out everything. It is good that we have people on either side of the fence on this issue. I like hearing all of your cockamame BS and the logical stuff Greg says.

    I still say all this is our fault , if we buy to much Gasoline the refineries can't keep up (so they say) and the price goes up (Commodity Traders push the price up) , now at current prices we are buying less and refineries are cutting back because of that , price goes up
    (Commodity Traders push the price up) .(Sarcasm)
    Speculators , trade stocks over the whole market , Commodity Traders trade Commodities , Oil and Gas being one of the Commodities traded .
    June contracts are about to begin , watch it go up again .
    If a Gallon of Gas is $3.85 and the retailers and such (Oil Companies say they get $.8) get $1.00 of the $3.85 and the Government (State and Local) gets $.80 , who gets the rest ?
    Now what is a tune again?

    The oil companies get more than .08 cents. That 8 cents is profit. The rest of the money they get pays employees, buys and maintains equipment and goes into research and developememt.

    I don't really want to get in the presidentcy side of things here, but earlier in the thread someone mentioned the military not being paid enough, and I just want to say I agree fully. It seems honest people and hard working people these days are always the ones getting the shaft while the stupid damn celebrity people always act retarded and get paid all kinds of money just too act. My cousin just got out of the Marines, two months before this he had just got back from his second tour in Iraq, roadside bombs and all, gets home opens his stimulus check and gets only $300.00 freak'n dollars !!! right then and there I started looking at things alot different. P.S. thank you to all who have served and are serving in the armed forces on this forum. -Chris
