Good Soldier, true enough! ...but not the perfect soldier, and in the ways she is "imperfect" she hold hope for America's youth, especially blacks, for increased awareness, and Osborn F: like I said, a stepping stone toward a Libertarian awakening.

Remember, too, that "Big Oil" would still be big, but without its undue influence on our govt's actions were our founding principles better adhered to by, or demanded of, our politicians.

BTW, I submit to all you "social democrats" (who I'd like to enlighten with Libertarian thought)

IF:

The U.S. is filled with greedy capitalists, and
There is so much wealth concentrated in the hands of a sizable few who only lust for more,
Wouldn't they pool resources and launch a private business campaign to build more fuel refining capacity and cut into the monopoly held by "big oil"?
The reason they don't, is government "regulation" (read: monopoly protection)
and all the seemingly "environmental" regulations creating so many various state required climatic gasoline formulations in fact only serve to raise prices (and profits) for the gasoline suppliers.
Another example of how govt always corrupts, serves its own interest first and limits the economy (read: happiness) of its people while pulling the wool over its eyes that it has its "health" as its primary concern.
