Question: Is the Price of Oil High or our country is coming to the market standard? 

Answer: i think we, the US, are coming to the market standard, and it might just be possilbe the price of oil is high as well.\nthere is alot of talk these days of peak oil and such, but there has been sort of recently research and a growing theory that oil is perhaps a renewable resource (a google search for "oil renewable resource" will turn up some articles on this if you are interested.  i'm not sure what to make of it and if i've just been so beaten with the idea that one day it will out that i'm overly resistant to this idea or what....but if this does turn out to be true, then there seems to be no reason from a scarity angle that the price should keep climbing...but then would oil companies really promote the fact that oil might not run out?\n\nbut yeah, given the price in the rest of the world, i think we are hitting the standard price now.
