Crude oil is the "engine" which runs our entire economy. Virtually everything consumers buy is transported via gasoline or diesel vehicles. The continued, unjustified and arbitrary raising of fuel prices, via the perpetual profit excuse of "supply & demand" & many, many more!... far beyond the cost to produce it via the Wall Street Speculator "betting" process is motivated by uncontrolled greed which only serves to hurt the average American wage earner. In the interest of a stable American economy, crude oil should be removed as a "Trading commodity" from the NYSE and only sold directly to the user via the U.S. Energy Department, and once refined sold to the general public via realistic production costs with profit margins controlled by a department designated by the U.S. Government.
