    Well, with offshore production being artificially reduced by 13% for 2011, they're not going down. That's for sure.

    The price you pay to live in paradise. Want cheaper gas prices, move to the mainland.

    The value of the dollar was much stronger when Clinton was in office. Demand was not as high either. With China sucking up so much supply and India not far behind prices will jump when the world economy gets going again.

    Exactly. The value of the dollar was higher because we had a balanced budget and were coming out of debt. The only reason the dollar isn't worth a kick in the nuts now is because we have such debt. I wouldn't say demand wasn't as high either. How can you even assume that? What facts do you have to support it? I'm not saying you're wrong. Just friendly arguement.

    I guess there goes the plastics industry too and all the other things that need petroleum.

    I believe that he says that there was less need because we all know that 17yrs ago there obviously less drivers on the road and less population.

    Our demand may have been higher back then, but the world deamand was lower. China and India were still emerging markets in the Clinton era. They were not consuming near the amount of gas that they are now.
