I think it's a matter of supply and demand. We know that government price controls don't work, ... We tried that back in the 1970s and that created gas lines, the misery index and all of that mess.

In the big picture, the whole world at every level, micro, macro, physiological, psychological, material, economical, spiritual, all are a demand-supply problem.

It has been more than 30 years since this disgraceful episode occurred, and I believe that the United States government should demand the return of the USS Pueblo to the United States Navy without further delay.

If this is to become a perpetual government program, like flood insurance, the industry should be honest about it.

In 1935, when the Social Security system was created, the Government did not need to prepare for the possibility of a depleted system.

There's not much you can do about (the prices). It's a political matter. Of course, supply and demand comes into it, but I don't think the war in Iraq or (Hurricane) Katrina has any particular effect on it.
