oil-price.net anybody on the thread have an idea how to prevent oil prices from causing a catastrophe in the US in the short term? On LI in NY they are already warning homeowners that each fillup on oil heat will be $1500 cash on the barrelhead. 300 gallons at $5 which is where its heading. Conservation is one way but is not enuff, nor it can be. Getting opec help is not going to happen. Perhaps given that speculators may be driving this latest surge in price, do we open up strategic reserves? Can that have an effect. Economy already in growth recession. I am always the optimist and i am getting worried as hell. The worries alone will make growth recession into severe on by election time.
