The solution, take the gloves off of Israel and let them regulate, the entire world will be thankful once that crappy area known as the middle east is a glowing hole in the ground. Even Libs will be happy cause it will further there cause in having to develop alternative fuels due to the oil being hard to get to with the increased levels of radiation, but you have to take some good with the bad. (Good = middle east no longer a problem....bad = oil supply will be down for a while.) There will be few if any terrorist training grounds left. We can then pull our troops from the area, and redeploy them on our borders to keep out our biggest problem, illegal aliens.
I heard it somewhere, that the mere threat of us drilling more of our oil will drive prices back down, due to OPECS fear of us reducing our demand of foreign oil. Personally I am all for drilling our own, taking Iraqi oil to pay us back for liberating that crappy country, and Mexico should be giving us oil for all the American dollars that are pumped into that economy due to all the illegal aliens from that country. Those 3 things alone would reduce the cost of oil in a heartbeat. So where is the logic in preventing our own drilling. If it wasn't for libs in the mid 90's stating it was pointless to drill in ANWR and offshore because it would take 10 years to produce any results. If we looked to the future no for just immediate appeasement of whacked out lobbyists, we would still most likely be at $1.25 to $2.00 a gallon for gas. So why repeat the cycle. If it takes 10 years to get 1 barrel, who cares. We will not be so advanced with alternative fuels, that our dependence on oil will decrease enough to justify not producing more of our own.
What really stinks about this whole mess is the section 8 population moves into a neighborhood where a property owner takes the vouchers for guaranteed money, and they bring the public housing mentallity with it. In my neighborhood alone, where I work my a$$ off to pay the mortgage, these people come in and turn the neighborhood into a public housing looking area, and pay little if anything to live there. If my statement is stereotypical, so be it. My wife, a big liberal, asked me for the first time how to get a concealed carry permit to walk my children during the daytime. The new elements and type of people coming into the neighborhood on an everyday basis have brought more reported crime, burglaries, vandalism and car thefts. I work hard for everything my family has, and these groups of people don't and get to enjoy everything I work 40 - 60 hours a week for, for basically free. I say if you tear the public housing down, fine, but rebuild it and make the people earn the right to live there. It is not up to every other hard working person to give people who don't or won't work anything with our tax dollars. Great, no public housing is fine, just don't give them free rent to live in my neighborhood and drive the house values down even further, than the market is doing on it's own.
Who cares, all a lot of talk with no hope of follow through. As long as Barrack and that witch Hillary don't get elected, I'll be happy!

It's easy, just eliminate the time people can be on welfare and don't give them incentive to have more children. Also, it is not our responsibility to make sure people who have no intention to better themselves get aid. A conscious choice is made by the individuals, and they should have to deal with the reprecusions of there choices. I choose to go to work, I pay my taxes, I feed my family, and keep them closed. I came from a poor family, but chose to make it out. I do not feel sorry for people who can't hack it due to the personal choices they make. Also, cut any welfare to illegal immigrants. Make them prove citizenship before giving them anything. I bet that would reduce the welfare budget enormously. nothing irritates me more than seeing a person get out of a brand new Cadillac Escalade and using food stamps or wic coupons to buy milk for there kids they are receiving welfare for.
