Recently the members of Opec (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries) put out a memorandum saying, they "believe the price of the oil barrel is too low". Also, they think that people can afford to pay more for gas. Really???? Where do these people live? In a cave? Don't they know the World economy is struggling?
So, which ones are these contries? Algeria, Angola, Ecuador, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Lybia, Nigeria, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and Venezuela. These are the people that are controling the gas prices and are playing with our natural resources. Who are they to say, how much we should pay for it. How can it be that 12 countries have the entire World by the balls?
I guess some of these countries, haven't learn the most recent lesson of our current times. The leasson that Greed is a bad thing and at the end we all pay for it. What is funny, is that in these countries companies are using something that was given to us by Mother Earth. Maybe, we should pay for the process but not for something it does not belong to a country, goverment or company. Earth owns these resources and us, as sons of Mother Earth, we own it too.
At some point someone realized, they can build a machine that would work by using gas. Did we run out of ideas? Why dont invent a machine that would work with something else. Well, Im sure if we invent something that will run with air, they will figure out a way to charge us for it.
We are in the middle of a political campaing here in the United States. Around the world, there are hundreds of political campaings. So, far I haven't heard a single candidate saying that they stand against these countries and company's bulling the entire World.
We all should put preasure on these countries and companies, so they can be a little more understanding. Let at least do our part, lets try to use less fuel.
Things to remember:
1_ The oil belongs to all of us.2_ Twelve countries are controling the oil prices
3_ Lets get creative, so we dont depend so much on petroleum.
Things to forget:
- Lets dont forget at election times.
