Oil is up because the Saudis cut production moron. If world economies continue to plummet look for the price to fall yet again and then the Saudis willcut production again to try and stabilize the price.
Oil price is not up.
After the roller coaster ride of 2008, the price of oil has stabilized in the early days of 2009 at around $40 a barrel after the OPEC cartel slashed its production to make up for lower oil demand. But as the global economy weakens, many analyst are forecasting prices could weaken even more in coming months.
Only a few months ago, oil prices peaked above $147 a barrel, a record that was reached in July, before tumbling in record time.
Oil prices have stabilized, they may well go down more, and calling someone names is juvenile and sophomoric.
Three facts you can count on.

Wolf, like I said earlier, tire pressure does make a difference. But, is it up to our government to tell us how to live our lives?? If I want the tire pressure lower, isn't that my God given right in America?? If not, where is it going to stop? As far as I'm concerned the government has no right in this matter. What they do have a right to do,. is protect the constitution...not rewrite it.
Yes, indeed you do. You have a god given right to drive around on flat tires if you are so foolish as to do so. No doubt the local Firestone dealership would like to see more people doing just that, as it would increase their business enormously.
And, as obama Pointed out, driving on underinflated tires wastes gasoline. Of course, you have a right to waste all of the gas you can afford to buy, so go right ahead.
