is selling oil for 70$ a barrel theft ?

Is it a crime that people pay thousands of dollars for diamonds? Or pay $50 for a dozen roses for a loved one?

Money is just paper and coins. We accept it as currency. If we accept oil at these high prices than we legitimize it. Instead of sighing about gas prices and still filling up twice a week it would be much better to do something about it.

h cottie is bac-tive?:
ppl are too busy smokin bongs and drinkin beers to do anything about it. ppl will bitch forever about things they don't like but wen it comes down to it, they won't do anything about it becaus we're too lazy and too inconsiderate.

ok... well lets say you visit some poor persons house... you go into their back yard, and you see an apple tree there, you realise that it has nice apples, and they can be sold... so you tell the house owner you will buy them for 1$ each... then after a while you become dependant on these apples, you need them to thrive, the house owner gets greedy and decides to start selling them for 10$ a pop, and decides to start using the proceeds as a means to destroy the person that made you rich in the first place, out of fear of the person stealing the apple tree because the prices of the apples are so high...

is that wrong ?
