Oil prices tumble in biggest weekly drop ever
7/19/08
Quote:
NEW YORK - The price of oil recorded its biggest weekly drop ever, and a gallon of gas finally pulled back from its record high. So is it time to declare the energy bubble popped?

(Light, sweet crude for August delivery fell 41 cents Friday to settle at $128.88 on the New York Mercantile Exchange — well below its trading record of more than $147 a week earlier.
The average price of a gallon of regular gas fell about a penny for the day, to $4.105, according to auto club AAA, the Oil Price Information Service and Wright Express. Diesel prices dipped three-tenths of a cent to $4.842 a gallon.)

OPEC SUCKS. There sucking up all our money. It costs them $8.00 to produce a barrel of oil. They live like Kings. They don't have work. There citizens get paid $5,000.00 a month. They just walk around in their dresses all day long, drink coffee, and talk about how much they hate Americans. We need to declare war on them and just take the oil. Now this would be a war worth fighting.

Oh, and I'll say it again, if oil drops to $70.00 a barrel. What. Do you think gas will drop 1/2 the $4.10 it is now, to $2.05. No way! What's wrong with this picture?

We get most of our oil from Canada and Mexico, are they living like Kings too?

Oil is oil, its volume of oil not who oil is being sold to, they still get world market value to whom every they sell it too.....

Canada is number 6 top exporter
Mexico is number 7...

Obviously Canada is doing much better because they have way less people then Mexico...

Why don't you tell us in a smart intelligent way about Canada and Mexico. If you can.
Would you rather I say something not smart?

Top three oil importers to the U.S. per day:

Canada-1.84 million barrels
Saudi Arabia- 1.579 barrels
Mexico- 1.116 barrels

Anything else you need, let me know.
