I don't understand how we temporarily decrease state gas taxes, yet be more diligent when enforcing the 55-MPH speed limit.

The cops need state taxes, yet they want to temporarily suspend this taxation. So how are they going to have increased patrols without the funding necessary-- doesn't make sense.

Strictly Enforce 55-MPH Speed Limit

lol yeah that will save people alot of money. they can pay a huge fine and pay for a billion more officers to be on the streets enforcing it.

the one that makes the most sense is the margin requirements but I know they've already done that on other commodities like silver and corn and stuff.

if they really wanted to bring down gas prices the best thing they could do would be to stop inflating the freaking currency. no more quantitative easing!

It's not inflation, it's speculation on gasoline.

gold, silver and all sorts of commodities have gone up as well. Some of it is speculation the reason they are speculating is because of all the new money being printed.

if they raised interest rates way up they'd all drop like crazy.

so you think oil prices would go up if they raised interest rates?

Yeah really. It's hard to believe that the prices are going up because someone "speculates" as opposed to cold hard fact and actual truth. Seems to ne to be just another way to get rich folk richer.

Like with this Tsunami bit-it was reported yesterday that that the UAE stocks went up 3% as a result of the disaster in Japan. This is because they are ready to help Japan out with oil and gas, at the usual requirement of making a buck off of a disaster. I guess that'll never change.

It's bizarre, it's like we have to impose some sort of regulations in some areas, though not too much in order to have market institutions to function ideally. Even though cartels and other forms of collusion are results of laissez faire. Weird.
Well I take all theorists with a grain of salt: Smith, Marx, Veblen, Solow, Ricardo, Von Mises, Keynes, Marshall, Fisher ect. In the end I end up veering towards the Institutionalists-- I try not to.

Aggresively enforcing a 55 mph speed limits is not feasible. There would be riots on the highway.

Route 78 in New Jersey would be a traffic cop's dream in that case...the speed limit is 65, and be that as it is, many times I've had people shooting by me like Sonic The Hedgehog.  It would be crazy...

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
