Well...if they can keep food prices up...there will be more political destabilization and we can have more wars? We really enjoy those you know.

Congress is owned by special interests...not the people. Farmers...big ag companies....and maybe they think less dependence on oil is good?

Between more corn...the XL pipeline...and fracking we won't have an environment anyway. Can we say it...PEAK OIL?
