Your assuming I believe that figure and I don't.
I just saw three videos about bio fuel and its incredible not one thing
about rise in oil prices. You think thats objective
One can easily argue which came first the rise in oil or countries who
reacted to that rise by looking for alternatives? One can just as easily
blame the rise in oil. Oil companies can keep rising prices and then blame
the wheat and corn producers and have a producers say its our fault.
