[Pressing-On]

I agree with the article that speculation will just find a new home and I also agree that we would do better by increasing domestic supply. That, IMO, is the greatest issue and should have been started years ago when Bush wanted it done. Of course, the left tree huggers put a stop to that.

On the subjection of reining in consumer demand, that's a little hypocritical coming from someone that approves of speculating. They want us to rein in, but they don't want to curb it in their arena.

Suggesting ways to conserve while prices are high is okay, but not on the level that is being purported by Obama. I can be told the best ways to conserve electricity, but if I'm willing to pay for my consumption, then don't put restrictions unless it's a national emergency.
