The only reason that oil and gasoline prices are rising again is that there is no
serious competition to oil and gasoline. It's not that there aren't legitimate alternative fuels that could compete, which of course there are; it’s that the oil-gasoline industry has done such a masterful job in buying politicians and big media,
that they have kept the alternatives off the starting line.
On the political side supporting oil-gasoline you have Republicans, Democrats,
Conservatives, Liberals, Communists, and Libertarians; they're all there. Because if there's one thing that can be said about politicians it's that they can be
bought. It's irrelevant whether they've spent their lives fighting for the concept
of open free markets, or in pursuit of a glorious socialist wet-dream; if there's a
dollar bill to be had and they can get it, just slap a sold sticker on their forehead.
