No Pros. Only Con's., for people like you and me.What are the pros and cons of raising oil prices?
Pros are huge profits for oil companys, cons are rising prices of everything because of all that greed
Yes, it's called SUPPLY %26amp; DEMAND.





Democrats was High Gasoline prices.


That's why they won't let us drill in Anwr, Offshore, or on Oil Rich Government Land.





High Oil Prices is just part of the Democrats' Big Plan.
it teaches gas guzzling SUV drivers the value of a dollar, as driving is considered a luxury these days.


It also motivates us (non arabic nations) to devise more alternative forms of energy than relying on foreign oil.


I would happily drive an electric car or even take the bus or subway, if it meant we could disaccosiate ourselves from barbaric, arab nations. Too bad most people are so vain about thier cars and don't feel the same!
all the pros go to those who control the supply. all the cons go to those who consume.
There are no pros, only cons. The oil states get richer and they are all corrupt except for Venezuela
The only potential pro is that maybe the liberals will stop blocking drilling and refinery building, and open up more exploration of alternate fuels.





The cons are the impact on our economy, the impact on Americans' expenses, etc.





I think it is disgusting that the liberals are blocking drilling and refineries during this time, though.





No, we can't...There are two oil fields which would provide enough oil to provide the US with 100% of our oil needs for the next 50-70 years (Alaska and the Gulf of Mexico) depending on which estimate you believe. If we had our own oil, rather than reliance on other countries, we THE PEOPLE would have some say in cost. As it is, you are allowing other countries to determine how much we pay. How long are you willing to allow that?
There are no Pros.
