Now What?

As I listened to the local radio announcer yesterday morning, going through his list of current events and political things for callers to rant about, he chose to address, not the high gasoline prices, but rather the lack of complaining about the high gasoline prices. That seemed simple enough before the two hours of calls that ensued. The American people realize we have no say, there is nothing we can do about what is going on, and complaining only gets new legislation . . . so we just shut up and take it. It did make me start asking some questions, though and one of them is of course, "Why are so many oil wells capped here in the US? Why are the oil men satisfied to make no money off of their oil when it is a record high, over $60.00 a barrel?" I thought those oil men liked to make money, but maybe I just watched too much "Dallas." Now then, we move on to our newest solution. We have ethanol. We are going to turn our food and food for our livestock, namely corn, into fuel. Well, that raises some interesting questions, also, but we may never get to that point anyway. Much of the midwest, where most of our corn comes from, is enduring a drought and the corn crop is failing horribly. `So, now what's the next plan?
And also I have withholden the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the LORD.
