Remember those times, back in like the early 2000's...when people suggested we increase supply, reduce restrictions on new refineries. And we had eyes rolled at us and told "Yeah, that'd be useful in like 10 years. Its not going to do anything for now, so we shouldn't do it".
Gee...I'm sure glad we listened to them then. I mean, what if they were right? It would've taken us till like the early 2010's to see any benefit. And its not like we'd need any benefit towards the price of oil in the early 2010's because of all the wonderful and amazing green energy we have.
.....
wait a minute? You mean we're still, GASP, driving cars that take oil? And we're still talking about high gas prices? And we're still talking about how we could use more supply? And we'res till being told "Pssh, we shouldn't do that, it'd take like 10 years to even have an effect probably!"
:roll:
You know what...fine, it'll take 10 years. Who the **** cares, then in 10 years we'll be better off for it. If we hadn't listened to the idiocy 10 years ago and actually gone through wit hit, perhaps we wouldn't be having as big of an oil issue as we were having today, where once again we have people going "Gosh! It won't help for 10 years. Gosh!"
