Yes, micro ... you have touched upon the real issue, here. Every time Conservatives suggest it is way past time to open up the drilling and refining of our own very plentiful oil & gas reserves in this country, the leftists always whine and respond that it would not help bring down today's high prices. Well ... NO SHIT ... however, that is nothing but a pathetic, juvenile argument meant to dismiss rather than discuss the issue. If leftists were rational people instead of mindless ideologues and had been more amenable to domestic oil & gas production and refining, in the past, we would now be producing a much, much greater percentage of our own fuel needs, the prices would be below where they are now, and it would have already created hundreds of thousands of jobs that we are in desperate need of, now. There is a significant lead time in ramping up increased oil & gas production and refining, so you obviously have to start at some point in order to be up and running, in the future. Problem is, leftists, being juveniles with the attention span of a gnat, only want to try their ideologically pure, "quick-fix" ideas that they can implement immediately through centralized control from the federal government ... which actually only serve to make matters worse (because leftists don't understand free markets, at all!) ... but all the resulting failure, destruction, angst, and suffering from their ineptitude suits them, in the long run, because they don't want to let a good crisis (that they've made worse or manufactured in the first place) go to waste in furthering their Socialist/Marxist agenda.
