Ron Paul for A New Direction

Free Markets and the Price of Oil

with 4 comments

About seven years ago natural gas was around $12.  Now it’s trading around $4.00.  What drove this dramatic price drop while oil was rising in price.   One answer, free markets.  The natural gas resources are here in North America, and the drillers were not restricted to explore and develop those reserves.  The drilling created an abundent supply of gas, thus driving down the price.  At the same time, the Obama administration and the anti-oil crowd has restricted drilling for oil here and is making us more dependent on foreign supply.  If we want cheap oil, all we need to do is follow the example of natural gas and the price will be driven down by market forces, not by government.

  3. Hello Webmaster, I noticed that https://opinionoregon.wordpress.com/2011/10/07/free-markets-and-the-price-of-oil/ is ranking pretty low for some keywords, this may be due to the new Google Panda update, or it could be due to a variety of other factors. I’m sure you already know about On-page SEO, where Google cares highly about proper formatting of various H1/H2/H3 tags, having your main keyword appear in the beginning of your post and having your post end with the keyword, along with having keyword related alt tags and very relevant LSI. However, you do not seem to have the proper Keywords or relevant Keywords in your posts and in the website. Right now you need a tool or plugin that will allow you to check on Keyword insights, search trends and check for backlink analysis and to find out your Keyword competition. To find a Keyword Plugin that combines both Keyword Research and has the ability as a Rank Checker is what WordPress Seo Keyword, please check out our 5 minute video.
