I don't mind discussing at all, either, but sometimes I feel terribly outwitted. The oil crisis was indeed created by OPEC, which is actually a union, which doesn't help my arguement about unions. However, when we were young, gas wars existed, and the prices were driven way down. Not any more - somebody somewhere got there act together and got with the other, I'm guessing, refineries and started fixing the prices. Like dope pushers - there wasn't much alternative back then, we needed the gas and they made us pay for it.
