The solution? For commodities that are crucial and have no substitutes, figure out how to mine/drill/process them domestically. That puts you in the driver's seat, and potentially drives the price down. It also reduces the money they have available to fund bad things, like terrorism and war.

If I or any one of you had stock in an oil company and found out the Board of Directors authorized the sale of our oil at a reduced rate instead of putting it out in the open market…
There will be a new Board of Directors. Bottom line oil is a worldwide commodity and the only way you control it.....is by not using it.
