Actually, I think it's energy prices that drive all the other prices. Stuff needs to be transported to where it's being used, and oil features in the transportation segment. My feeling is that oil demand will plunge by tens of millions of barrels, and there is nothing OPEC can do about that.

#8 #7 This is a good time for the political leadership to affirm support for automobile downsizing and electrification, and price protected domestic production.

Bullshit. We have enough socialized government meddling in the affairs of businesses as it is. What we need is domestic drilling, domestic refining, and domestic distribution of refined products. We also need nuclear power plants - about 75 of them. We need, until those nuke plants come online, about 100 clean-coal power plants. We also need a muzzle on the EPA, and someone to stand up to the entire government and reaffirm that anthropomorphic global warming is a myth that needs to be thoroughly discredited. If that takes breaking a few heads (Algore and company), so be it. We need to tell OPEC they can take their production control and insert it in the appropriate body orifice.
