To Beast or Bike, That is the Question

Beast or Bike?

A few days ago I made a proposal for an energy policy (Where Does it Leave Us?). Today, I read an article about Secretary of Energy Steven Chu spilling the beans that his plan is to push oil prices up to eight dollars a gallon. He wants us to become like Europe. Okay, let’s increase per-capita car ownership to Luxembourg levels. Let’s surround the country with nuclear power plants like the French, lets encourage more muslims to come and add to our diversity, let’s go back in time to build railroads, lets arm every citizen like the Swiss, lets decriminalize drug use like Portugal, lets remove references to the holocaust to avoid offending the muslims, lets allow schools to decide the career path your kid will go down in fourth grade like the Germans, let’s live with twenty-one percent unemployment like the Greeks, in general let’s go along with these new and exciting ideas for transforming America into a third world country.

It makes sense now why Obama kills all new drilling, he wants to put oil into short supply so the price goes up. Then he will blame those terrible big oil companies for lining their pockets with profits. Keeping us dependent on foreign oil also lets him funnel money (redistribute the wealth) to the Saudis. Hmm? Saudi Kings spend money in the USA. Very good for the economy right? Wrong. The Saudi vision is a mosque on every corner in the USA staffed by a radical muslim imam spewing hatred to his followers protected by the First Amendment. Second, they fund American Universities to set up departments to spread Arab-American relations. Don’t you wonder why we suddenly see home-grown jihadists willing to blow themselves up for Allah. Many American colleges have departments and courses to study Arab culture, sharia law, and promote a lack of tolerance for non-muslims. Universities brainwash students under the guise they need a better understanding of Arabs so they can become informed political scientists and bureaucrats. Yep, eight dollar a gallon gas going to the mid-east makes perfect sense to me.

Meanwhile our good King Obama promotes raising gas prices as a way to incentivize new forms of energy. At the rate we are going, there will be no need for new forms of energy because all of us will be living in a mud hut with a solar bottle for light. Who will be able to afford to drive a car at eight dollar gas? Which company will be able to ship food to the stores at eight dollar gas? Who will be able to move to jobs within walking distance of their homes? Who will feed the Beast and Air Force One for the pleasure of the King?

So Steven Chu let the cat out of the bag, the US Energy Policy is to raise gas prices to European levels or eight dollars a gallon.

I’m scared folks because this scenario sounds like Ayne Rands story “Atlas Shrugged” more and more. Get ready for the day when the Elite-Haves take from the Have-Nots to keep the Elite-Haves telling the Have-Nots what is good for them, because Elite-Haves are smarter and know what is good for you Mr. Have-Not.
