    Wow. Nice research job on this article. No property taxes?! Nebraska has some of the highest property taxes in the country. Because of the state's very low population base property tax payers in Lincoln and Omaha subsidies tax payers in the small communities. These small communities still need good roads, good schools, etc. The money to pay for it has to come from somewhere. Reply

    Nebraska does have property taxes, and with farm property, our property taxes have increased significantly in the last three years. Nebraska needs to recruit new businesses so that the tax burden in smaller counties is not on the farmer. Reply

    No property tax? My property tax payment is nearly a third of the mortgage payment on my house in Omaha. Reply

    How Did Major Retailers Do in August? [view article]
    Your work is instructive. Several articles about collective debt level have me very concerned:

    1) From Seeking Alpha
    The Great Consumer Crash of 2009
    by: James Quinn posted on: August 14, 2008

    2) From Dr. Marc Faber Market Comment: October 9, 2005

    (Note here that the ONLY time in history when our debt level even approached today is just before the Great Depression. Not a prediction, just an editorial note. But today our debt level is worse. )

    3) from Barrons Feb 11, 2008
    "This Credit Crisis Has a Long Way to Run"
    Interview with Jeremy Grantham, Chief Investment Strategist, GMO
    Barron’s By SANDRA WARD

    The above is a lot of data to take in. The picture, due to grossly excessive credit expansion, is bleak.

    I disagree with your suggestion that consumers will wise up. Some will for sure. But most won't until they are forced. And they will be due to credit restrictions now becoming much tougher. The banks will cut them off.

    User 143167: you are a freaking genius. You're right. It's not manipulation, it's pure market fundamentals. Due to the current state of the world economy people are driving less, flying less, consuming less oil (even China!), and... the price of the barrel of oil is low, and purely on fundamentals. How dumb I was to think that oil at $146 was price manipulation! These ethical oil traders would never do that to us. Kudos to you for your wisdom. Thanks for sharing, I'm sure nobody here knew about this. Wow. Reply

    You guys are all on wishful thinking. The biggest wishful thinking is "oil prices are manupilated by speculators, so that its plunge has no indication on global recession."
    Just hope, yeah, but you can keep that up until DOW are under 10000.

    You are so right JunkYardDog on the candidate types. My real questions. When will the public get a cut of the money when the CFTC, congress and the rest of the regulators find out that speculators made prices rise on incorrect data from import suppliers that were caught in a make more money scheme. The speculators never bought the oil and the suppliers sold it to the people that did at the high premimum....

    I won't hold my breath. Neith one of the candidates are saying anything about that...this is why specualtion and manipulation of data is still going on. If a bank (Goldman...cough...Cha... cough) is found to help cause this they would have to pay a small fine compaired to the billions they made because they don't care and are going to keep doing it until things change. Hummm...they screw us in the mortgage game and get our money...then they get caught and loose everything they get more money from us some other way (oil)...then they go to the precious metals market when oil is being looked at...now they are moving to the corn and grain markets since gold and silver are getting press...wonder where they will go next. Someone needs to stop this crap.

    As far as the White House goes, we all better get used to McSame. I have to give it to them: "Hockey Mothers for Palin Power" is one of the biggest idiocies I've seen in a while, but Palin was the bomb last night. Her appeal was great, and that's all it takes sometimes to win an election.

    Give it to the Republicans: politically they're a lot smarter than the dems. Unless, the dems really wanted to lose this election on purpose, as I'm starting to believe.

    So, Phil, the oil bouce back to $110 won't last long. Thank goodness the downward pressure is still on.

    Your article "The Oil Shortage, and Other Fairy Tales" published here on May 22, 2008 is the best piece of literature published this year. Man, you're good, I just wish you wouldn't hope so much for politics to change significantly the status quo. Not with these candidates. Our options are simple:
    a "community organizer" versus a "war monger".

    Tough choice.

    Philip, I think today's market gives you a lesson, which is :" There is nothing you can actually cheer about the plunge oil price that reflect a deeper global recession."
    Now every sectors will be sold-off and the bear market is just about to begin.
