And we wonder why…

Here’s a scenario:

My neighbor grows tomatoes. I like his tomatoes. I can go to the store and buy tomatoes. But they cost a little more, and I like his better anyway. A lot of other people like his tomatoes, so they’re buying his too, and he raises the price. Supply and demand, you know.

So I tell my neighbor to plant more tomato plants next year, because I want more, and want them cheaper.

What’s my neighbor going to say and do? He might, but he might not. If he says he won’t, or doesn’t , can I sue him?

I’d get laughed out of court, as well I should.

So this morning I read this:House passes bill to sue OPEC over oil prices

Do I think oil prices are too high? Yes. Do we have a right to sue them over non production? No. End of story.

And we wonder why we are in the shape we are in, with a congress of people who emulate their constituents entitlement mentality.
