Now AOPA is plugging this site as well.
Here is my letter to Congress:
AOPA and the airlines are barking up the wrong tree by attacking commodities traders. IF speculation is actually driving prices up, it is only a symptom of the problem of supply and demand.
There is too much demand and we don't access the supplies that we have thanks to special interest groups. We need to start drilling and building more nuclear power plants immediately. We have only built one refinery since the 1970s and 90% of our domestic offshore oil reserves (billions, if not trillions, of barrels) are off limits.
Government regulation and environmental special interests are to blame for much of our distress. Thirty years of mismanagement cannot be overturned with a bill attacking "evil capitalists."
An immutable law of supply and demand is that as demand increases, the price increases. The only ways to reduce price are by either reducing demand or increasing supply. That is where we should be focusing our efforts.
