Not to be insulting, but of what concern should it be to anyone,
especially those who are not Americans, how I spend my US dollars? Gas,
booze, women (OK just my wife and daughter), food, toys, or whatever the
hell else I want to spend it on? I really could not care less what any
other nationality thinks of my spending or living habits. Other
countries are free to do whatever their citizens let them do (which
mostly seems to be to tax the hell out of things that are necessary or
pleasurable), and if the USA offers vehicles and gas at whatever prices,
I will make my choices accordingly. If the representatives of the
people choose to do things that are not to our collective (or at least a
majority of voters and the courts) desire then we will deal with that.
Now, if those external individuals and countries decide to do things
that are not in "our" interest, then "we" need to figure out what to do
about that and act accordingly. In our locality, and I think that of
our northern neighbors, the markets are awash in oil and gas, and from
what I can learn, that can go on for quite some time (decades) before
there is a shortage driving prices to $150. Once again, technology and
some smart people have changed the world, and new ways of thinking need
to deal with that. If I was a Saudi or a Russian I would be very
concerned these days.

Au contraire. We are in an era of DEflation. Oil may go down to the
$30s/bbl.
And Americans will once again buy the biggest thirstiest vehicles that
they can find and demand will go up and oil will then go back up to
$150 per bbl.
