Finally a break in sight for high gas prices? China announced today it will stop paying a portion of it's citizens fuel bill. The Chinese will now bear the brunt of increased fuel costs like we have been doing in the states. India is also guilty of this and hopefully they will do the same soon. The increased cost id killing the governments financially. I always preach free markets work best. This means heeping governments out. The oil futures took a big drop today. I am very curious to see what happens the next few months.

John, China stopping it's oil subsidies is a start. Now maybe we can get OUR government to stop subsidizing this industry! If you don't think that the US is subsidizing the oil industry look at some of the lease deals that they get on federal land, as well as the various tax breaks that they get!

John It seems to be a step in the right direction. Now we just have to start drilling our own reserves
