The Politics of Oil

By

Hey friends... I have been out of the country for awhile. I can see that my post on September 5th "Will You Survive When the Hard Times Come" about being "agreeable" sparked some disagreement and stirred more controversy than I would have imagined. I don't think any of us really know what is going on behind the scenes vis-à-vis oil prices and the politics of oil. I just offered a casual, personal observation that to me things look a little suspect. I am not trying to convince anyone of my point of view which is clouded at best on this issue; rather I was sharing a personal sentiment with you all. There was no logic or value, I guess, in sharing the comment other than to speak with you as I would a friend and voice a concern I have, knowing I have no solution. I appreciate you all writing in. You offer valuable input every day and it encourages me. You guys are the best!

P.S. Check back on your blog posts from time to time. Sometimes it's a few days before a post you have made gets responded to, but the replies I have seen are very good.
