1. I watched that segment.
Very good story. I knew the speculators in the market were driving up oil prices but I didn't know who the players were or how exactly they were doing it.

3. NO SHIT.
Edited on Tue Jan-13-09 06:16 PM by alllyingwhores
The real question is (and it's rhetorical) is why the federal regulatory body that was responsible for regulating DIDN'T F__KING REGULATE. Oh...I forgot...that's right, deregulation was pushed through by Enron and the Bush administration in 2000.

5. Not drill, baby, drill?
